Glass
Silica-bearing feedstock for glass manufacturing. Review chemistry and physical specifications for the intended glass process.
Industrial applications
Explore how quartz is evaluated for glass, ceramics, engineered stone, foundry, refractories and coatings.
END USES
Evaluate quartz for your process
Ceramics
Quartz for ceramic bodies and glazes, evaluated against the formulation and processing requirements.
Engineered stone
Chips and fine fractions can serve as aggregate or filler, subject to the particle-size and formulation needs.
Foundry
Silica-based material for foundry applications where grain size and chemistry meet process requirements.
Refractories
Quartz-bearing material for selected refractory formulations, subject to thermal and chemical requirements.
Paints and coatings
Fine mineral filler where particle size, whiteness and surface characteristics suit the formulation.
Suitability depends on chemistry, particle size, whiteness and the customer’s process requirements.
