Silica sand,also known as quartz sand, white sand, or industrial sand, is made up of two main elements: silica and oxygen. Specifically, silica sand is made up of silicon dioxide (SiO2). The most common form of
· Glass. Glass is manufactured by heating a mixture of silica sand and various metallic oxides/carbonates together in a furnace to a smooth and bubble-free melt at ∼1500°C. The usual glass used in the construction industry is soda glass. Formulations are very variable but typically might be: SiO 2. 70–75%.
