Silica Sand

الوصف

Pakistani silica sand is a high-purity, naturally sourced sand with a silicon dioxide (SiO2) content of ****8%, ideal for a wide range of industrial applications. Known for its uniform grain size, strength, and thermal stability, this silica sand is widely used in glass manufacturing, water filtration, construction, and foundries. Extracted from quality deposits in Pakistan, it is carefully processed to ensure low impurity levels and optimal performance. Pakistani silica sand provides industries with a reliable, versatile, and durable material that meets both domestic and international standards.
Product Features:
1. High Silica Content
Purity: Silica sand from Pakistan typically contains high levels of silicon dioxide (SiOâ‚‚), often around ****9%, depending on the region, with lower impurities like iron oxide, aluminum, and clay content.
Low Iron Content: Especially in deposits from Punjab, making it suitable for applications that require high transparency, like glass production.
2. Consistent Grain Size and Shape
Uniform Grain Sizes: Available in fine to coarse grains, suitable for specific applications in glassmaking, construction, filtration, and more.
Spherical Shape: The natural roundness of grains enhances flowability, making it ideal for foundry and filtration applications.
3. Thermal and Chemical Stability
Heat Resistance: Withstands high temperatures, making it perfect for foundry molds and refractory applications.
Inert Properties: Chemically stable, providing durability and longevity in chemical, industrial, and construction applications.
4. Versatile Industrial Applications
Glass Manufacturing: Used as a primary ingredient in the production of various types of glass, including flat glass, container glass, and fiberglass.
Foundries and Casting: Due to its thermal stability and grain uniformity, silica sand is ideal for casting molds in metal foundries.
Water Filtration: The uniform size and hardness make it effective for water and wastewater filtration systems.
Construction: Used as a filler in concrete, cement, and mortar mixes to improve durability and strength.
Paints and Coatings: Acts as a filler in paints and coatings, enhancing durability and resistance to weathering.
5. Color and Clarity
Natural Color: Light to white color is preferred for glass manufacturing and construction, where aesthetics is important.
Low Impurities for Clarity: High-quality deposits in areas like Punjab provide clarity and consistency, crucial for applications requiring transparency.
6. Environmental and Cost Benefits
Locally Sourced: Pakistans deposits provide a sustainable, readily available source of silica sand for domestic and international industries, reducing transportation and import costs.
Cost-Effective: Competitive pricing for domestic and export markets, making it an economical choice for manufacturers.
7. Compliance with Industry Standards
Pakistani silica sand often meets international quality standards, especially for glassmaking and filtration, due to its high silica content and controlled impurity levels.
