    •  What is Silica mineral?

    Silica mineral or silicon oxide with the chemical formula SiO2 is one of the most abundant oxide compounds in the Earth's crust.

    Silica is present in nature in free form or in combination with other oxides. Silica is a group of non-metallic minerals that are found in nature in white or colorless to dark gray or light yellowish white in nature.

    Silica is solid, odorless and insoluble in water. Silica has a high hardness and melting point. Crystalline silica exists in several forms in nature, the most common of which is quartz.

     

    • Applications of Silica mineral:

    In general, the uses of silica are: glass industry, porcelain industry, ferrosilicon production industry, ceramics industry, silica brick production industry, casting industry, sodium silicate production industry, other silica production industry, electronics industry for Semiconductor production, glass wool production industry, cement production industry.

    Silica is used as a crumb in building materials. They use clear and crystalline silicones to produce lenses and jewelry cones. Silica is used in various other industries to produce silica gel, additives to increase the strength of concrete, fiber optics, silicones and silicates.
