Glass GRADE
"Glass grade properties" typically refer to the specific characteristics and qualities of glass that determine its suitability for various applications. Glass comes in a wide range of types and grades, each with its own set of properties that make it suitable for different purposes.High grade silica sand manufacturer for Glass Industries serving both Float glass as well as container glass Industries.
We manufacture around 10000 tons of glass grade sand per month. Here are some important glass grade properties:

Properties:
80 - 120 ppm

Transparency: Glass is known for its transparency, allowing light to pass through. The level of transparency can vary based on factors such as the type of glass, its thickness, and any coatings or treatments applied to it.

Hardness: Glass is a hard material, but its hardness can differ based on the specific type of glass. Some glasses are more scratch-resistant than others.

Silica sand is a primary component in the manufacturing of glass. It is a very
important raw material for standard and special glasses. The chemical purity of
silica sand is the principal determinant of strength, colour and clarity.
It is used to produce flat glass for building and automotive uses and for container glass that stores food and beverages. It reinforces glass fibres and required for the production of fibreglass insulation. It is applied in speciality glasses that include test tubes, scientific tools, television and CRT monitors, and also in incandescent and fluorescent lamps.

Calcium silicate bricks
For manufacturing calcium silicate bricks, silica sand is mixed with high calcium
lime with a sand to lime ratio of 10 or 20. These bricks contain good regularity,
smooth faces, and sharp corners with a wide variety of strength. The durability of calcium silicate bricks is similar to concrete and is not resistant to sulphur containing environments.

Silica sand for water filtration

Silica sand is an effetive filtration bed in the removal of contaminants in both
processing of wastewater and in the filtration of the drinking water. Silica sand
neutralizes the acidic elements to maintain optimal pH balance in water filters.
As it is chemically inert, it will not react when exposed to acids, contaminants,
volatile organics or solvents.

Metal Casting & Production

Silica sand is an essential part of the production of steel, ferrous and nonferrous foundry industries for de-oxidation and grain refinement. For obtaining desired internal or external shapes, metal parts are cast in silica sand. It is a preferred choice for castings that involve cast iron, steel, titanium and also used to clean the casting surfaces.

Paints & Coatings

Silica sand constitutes of high-performance properties such as brightness,
reflectance, oil absorption and colour-consistency. These properties help to
improve the overall appearance and durability of industrial and architectural
paints and coatings. Its low oil absorption nature improves finishing colour that makes a durable coating rich in pigments. Silica fillers improvement retention and also provide resistance to dirt, mildew, weathering and cracking

Micro Silica Sand:

Micro silica also known as fume, is an amorphous (non-crystalline) polymorph of silicon dioxide, silica. It is an ultrafine powder collected as a by-product of the silicon and ferrosilicon alloy production and consists of spherical particles with an average particle diameter of 150 mm. The main field of application is as pozzolanic for high performance concrete because of its extreme fineness and high silica.

Applications :

Silica is added to Portland cement concrete to improve its properties, in particular its compressive strength, bond strength, and abrasion resistance. These improvements stem from both the mechanical improvements resulting from addition of a very fine powder to the cement paste mix as well as from the pozzolanic reactions between the silica fume and free calcium hydroxide in the paste.

Advantages :

Addition of silica also reduces the permeability of concrete to chloride ions, which protects the reinforcing steel of concrete from corrosion, especially in chloride-rich environments such as coastal regions and those of humid continental roadways and runways (because of the use of deicing salts) and saltwater bridges.
