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

Cairo Minerals Offer High Graded and processed and sieved silica sand for artificial grass , which is natural grains, Silica sand is processed in our own screening plant after Extracting and transported to our site for screening, in our site we can grade and meet all required practical sizes according to FIFA. The silica sand for artificial grass has become Hot Request in the last 5 years which means high World production of artificial grass, and replaces natural grass. FIFA has Encouraged and Recommended using Artificial grass instead of Natural grass, for that Reason Silica sand has been ordered from many buyers, included football federation, individual companies, Sports Clubs, landscaping, Houses. Silica sand is used for Artificial Grass and football pitches, beach volleyball, tennis court, tennis soccer. What is common sizes of silica sand are normally used in filling artificial grass? The sand is used for both tennis and football artificial turf and therefore 2 different granulations are used: 1. Tennis: sand 0,4-0,8 mm (should not exceed 1,00 mm in any case). 2. Football: 0,5-1,25 mm (should not exceed 1,50 mm in any case). Generally, the silica sand granulation depend on the density of the synthetic grass, when the grass is quite dense ( more than 45000 stitches) we have to use the smaller granulation ( 0,5-0,7 mm) so that the sand can be placed into the grass pile when the grass is very dense, the sand cannot be placed inside In case of lower density ( soccer around 10 000 stitches), you can easily install the bigger granulation, but never higher then 1,5 mm ( even though some companies install even bigger but it is not according to any standards or international requests).
A golf course sand consists of a series of holes, each consisting of a teeing ground, fairway, rough and other hazards, and a green with a flagstick (pin) and cup, all designed for the game of golf. A standard round of golf consists of playing 18 holes, thus most golf courses have this number of holes.] Some, however, only have nine holes, and the course is played twice per round (2×9=18), while others have 27 or 36 holes and choose two groups, of nine holes at a time, for novelty and maintenance reasons. Additionally, par-3 courses also exist, consisting of nine or 18 holes, all of which are a par 3 (strokes for a scratch golfer). Many older golf courses, often coastal, are golf links, of a different style to others. For non-municipal courses, there is usually a golf club based at each course, and may include a pro shop.
