Glass grade silica sand
MOQ 28 Ton · Seller will confirm final rate
Glass Grade Silica Sand is an exceptionally pure, ultra-low iron crystalline silica aggregate engineered specifically for float glass, container glass, specialty optical glass, solar panel glass, and vitrified products. Produced through washing, attrition scrubbing, magnetic separation, chemical treating, and precise screening, this sand contains virtually no iron oxide (Fe2O3), titanium, or alumina impurities. This ensures maximum light transmittance, exceptional optical clarity, consistent thermal expansion, and flawless melting behavior in glass batch furnaces. KEY APPLICATIONS & INDUSTRIAL USES 1. Architectural & Automotive Float Glass:Primary raw silica material for high-clarity float glass used in building windows, architectural curtain walls, automotive windshields, and mirrors, providing high transparency. 2. Solar Glass & Ultra-Clear Glass:Low-iron variant (<0.018% Fe2O3) indispensable for manufacturing photovoltaic solar panel covers, greenhouse glass, and electronic display screens requiring zero green tint. 3. Container Glass & Tableware:Essential component in making clear glass bottles, food jars, beverage containers, cosmetics packaging, and high-grade crystal tableware with high chemical resistance. 4. Continuous Filament Fiberglass:Feeds fiberglass yarn, E-glass, and glass wool production lines used in composite reinforcements, insulation materials, and printed circuit board (PCB) backings. 5. Specialty & Laboratory Glassware:Utilized in borosilicate glassware, pharmaceutical tubing, lighting bulbs, optical lenses, and high-temperature vitreous quartz components. ADVANTAGES & PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS- Ultra-low iron content eliminates unwanted green coloration in finished glass.- Narrow particle size distribution ensures fast, uniform batch melting and energy savings.- Absence of refractory heavy minerals (chromite, zircon) prevents glass stones and seeds.- High chemical purity guarantees long-term chemical durability of glass products.
