Product Description
Silica Sand 8000 – 15000 micron
Silica sand in the 8000-15000 micron size range consists of extremely coarse particles, with most of them falling between 15 millimeters (15000 microns) and 8 millimeters (8000 microns) in diameter. This range of silica sand is exceptionally large and is used in highly specialized industrial applications that require very large sand particles. Here’s a description of silica sand in the 8000-15000 micron size range:
- Particle Size Range: Silica sand in this size range is characterized by its extremely coarse particle size, making it suitable for applications that demand exceptionally large-sized particles.
- Purity: High-quality silica sand in this size range typically contains at least 95% silicon dioxide (SiO2), ensuring a high degree of purity.
- Color and Texture: Silica sand in this size range is typically light-colored, often white, beige, or pale yellow. It has an extremely coarse and granular texture, feeling rough to the touch.
- Chemical Composition: The primary chemical component of silica sand is silicon dioxide (SiO2), making it chemically stable and resistant to most chemicals and environmental factors.
- Industrial Uses:
- Construction: Extremely coarse silica sand in the 8000-15000 micron range is not commonly used in traditional construction applications due to its very large particle size. However, it may find specialized use in construction scenarios where unique characteristics are required.
- Sandblasting: It is generally not used for sandblasting applications because the particle size is much larger than what is typically needed for effective surface preparation and cleaning.
- Erosion Control: In very specific cases, this size of silica sand can be used in erosion control measures along coastlines and riverbanks to reduce the impact of water currents and waves.
- Landscaping: Very coarse silica sand may be used for extreme drainage purposes in landscaping projects dealing with exceptionally heavy water runoff.
- Manufacturing: In manufacturing processes such as metal casting and mold making, extremely coarse sands like those in this range are rare due to their extreme coarseness.
- Equestrian Surfaces: While coarse silica sand is sometimes used in horse riding arenas, sands in this size range are very unusual for this purpose.
- Filtration: This size of silica sand is not typically used in filtration applications due to its exceptionally large particle size.
- Agriculture: In agriculture, it is highly uncommon to use extremely coarse silica sand like that in the 8000-15000 micron range.
- Filler in Construction Materials: Silica sand in this size range is not typically used as a filler in construction materials due to its extremely large particle size.
The specific applications of silica sand in the 8000-15000 micron size range are extremely limited and often specialized, as its very coarse nature makes it less versatile compared to finer grades of silica sand. It is mainly employed in scenarios where exceptionally large-sized particles are required for specific purposes, and such scenarios are relatively rare.
