Usage and Application Fields of Ceramic Sand

Ceramic sand has unique physical and chemical properties, which plays a significant role in aviation, aerospace, electronics, machinery, and the rapidly developed IT industry.

Especially its internal molecular chain structure, the crystal shape and change law of crystal lattice, make it with high temperature resistant, small thermal expansion coefficient, high insulation, corrosion resistance, piezoelectric effect, resonance effect, and other unique optical properties. It is playing a more and more important role in many high-tech products.

So what are the usage and application fields of ceramic sand? Let’s learn about it from the following aspects:

The usage of ceramic sand: It can be used to make glass, refractories, metallurgical flux, ceramic and grinding materials, or smelt ferrosilicon. Quartz products have strong acidic medium erosion resistance in building, so it is used for making acid-resistant concrete and sand pulp.

Quartz sand as the core raw materials for the silicon raw material, is an important basic role in the production and supply of silicon raw materials.

The main raw materials of ceramic sand include flat glass, float glass, glass products (glass jars, glass bottles, glass tube, etc.), optical glass, glass fiber, glass instruments, conductive glass, glass cloth and special glass, etc. They are also the glaze of ceramics and refractory ceramics, the raw material of high silica brick, ordinary silica brick and silicon carbide materials, and the raw materials and additives of metallurgical silicon metal, ferrosilicon and silicon aluminum alloy.
