What is Silicon Dioxide?
In silicon dioxide crystal, silicon atoms are located at the center of the regular tetrahedron, and four oxygen atoms are located at the top corners of the regular tetrahedron. Oxygen atoms connect many such tetrahedrons at the top corners. Two tetrahedrons share each oxygen atom; each oxygen atom is combined with two silicon protons. The simplest formula of silicon dioxide is SiO2. However, SiO2 does not represent a simple molecule (it only represents the ratio of the number of atoms of silicon and oxygen in the silicon dioxide crystal). Pure natural silicon dioxide crystal is a hard, brittle, insoluble, colorless, and transparent solid often used in the Manufacture of optical instruments.
Preparation method of crystalline Silicon Dioxide
Mix the raw materials containing Silicon Dioxide (silicon source), water, structural guiding agent, alkali, or acid in a certain proportion, put them into the pressure-resistant reactor for sealing, and then raise the temperature to 100-220 , keep the temperature constant for 5 hours to 10 days. After the reaction, cool the reactor quickly, wash the reaction products with water or dilute acid to pH 8-11, and dry them to obtain the raw powder. The raw powder or the products formed by adding adhesive are baked and activated in the muffle or tubular furnace.
 
Uses of Silicon Dioxide
Silicon Dioxide makes glass, instant glass, water glass, optical fiber, important parts of the electronic industry, optical instruments, handicrafts, and refractory materials. It is an important material for scientific research. Flat glass, glass products, sand for casting, glass fiber, ceramic glaze, sandblasting and rust prevention, sand for filtering, flux, refractory materials, and the Manufacture of lightweight foam concrete. Silicon Dioxide is widely used. Rare crystals in nature can be used to manufacture important components, optical instruments, and handicrafts in the electronic industry.
 
Price of Silicon Dioxide
Silicon Dioxide particle size and purity will affect the product's price, and the purchase volume can also affect the cost of Silicon Dioxide. A large amount of large amount will be lower. The price of Silicon Dioxide can be found on our company's official website.
