Silica in the form of quartz is used in glass making. Today, glass is used in many aspects of human life. It is used in making containers, construction and electronic industries. Of course, silica is of great importance as a component of the glass structure in these industries. Silica sand is used in making glass, it is a white powder. Silica sand must contain at least 95% silica and less than six tenths of iron oxide to be classified as silica sand. Making glass is a relatively simple and straightforward process. In this way, its ingredients are mixed together and then melted.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Cement production<\/strong>: Silica sand is widely used in the construction industry, especially cement. The use of silica makes cement stronger and for this reason it is used in structures such as bridges, towers and residential buildings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Sandblasting<\/strong>: Another use of silica sand is sandblasting.

Sandblasting is used in the preparation of surfaces before painting, as well as in the restoration of metals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" class=\"wp-image-2750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting-1024x538.webp\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting-1024x538.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting-300x158.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting-768x403.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting-640x336.webp 640w, https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting-400x210.webp 400w, https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting-367x193.webp 367w, https:\/\/www.arra.ir\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/sandbalsting.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Water treatment<\/strong>: The use of silica in water treatment is also very common. By using silica, it is possible to purify the waste materials in the water and obtain clean water, which can later be available to domestic and industrial consumers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Sports field<\/strong>: Another use of silica sand is its use in sports fields. For example, silica sand is used in beach volleyball courts. The woven texture of silica sand is such that it creates a soft and flexible surface which can create a very favorable environment for athletes. Silica sand is also used for the construction of children&#8217;s playgrounds due to its soft and flexible texture. Silica can prevent children from getting hurt while playing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Making ceramics<\/strong>: Silica is also used in making ceramics. Silica is used to strengthen the body of ceramics. This material can create the necessary strength due to the creation of bonds between other ceramic ingredients. The melting point of silica also reaches about 1600 degrees Celsius.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Oil and gas industries<\/strong>: One of the concerns in oil extraction is splitting rock surfaces and reaching the layers of oil below. By using silica sand and using it in hydraulic fracturing systems, extraction efficiency and effectivity can be increased.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Agricultural industry<\/strong>: due to its porous structure, silica sand can deliver water correctly and evenly to the roots of plants, and the nutrients needed by plants will be better available to them in this way.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Manufacturing<\/strong>: One of the other uses of silica sand is to create a suitable texture for polishing pastes. Polishing pastes should have a rough texture so that when rubbed on surfaces, they can create a polished and uniform surface by removing a thin layer of it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Electronics industry<\/strong>: Silica is one of the main materials used in making chips and chipsets.
