We are engaged in offering high quality Silica Flour that strictly conforms to industrial standards. Our Silica Flour has precise composition of chemicals that are efficient in performance. We are capable of taking up bulk orders of Silica Flour. Clients can get Silica Flour from us at reasonable prices.

The mill uses a rotating drum filled with steel balls or other grinding media to break down the silica sand particles. As the drum rotates, the grinding media crushes and grinds the silica sand, reducing it to the desired particle size.

Silica sand flour with a particle size of 10 microns, often referred to simply as “silica flour,” is an ultra-fine, finely ground form of silica sand. It is characterized by its extremely small particle size and is used in various industrial applications that require precise particle control and high purity. Here’s a description of silica sand flour with a particle size of 10 microns:

  1. Particle Size: Silica sand flour with a particle size of 10 microns consists of extremely fine particles, with most particles measuring just 10 micrometers (µm) or 0.01 millimeters in diameter. These particles are so small that they are often considered part of the category known as “microsilica.”
  2. Purity: Silica sand flour is known for its high purity, typically containing over 99% silicon dioxide (SiO2). The high purity is essential in applications where even trace impurities can have significant effects.
  3. Color and Texture: Silica sand flour is typically light-colored, often white or pale gray. Due to its extremely fine particle size, it has a powdery texture, feeling soft and smooth to the touch.
  4. Chemical Composition: The primary chemical component of silica sand flour is silicon dioxide (SiO2), making it chemically stable and resistant to most chemicals and environmental factors.
  5. Industrial Uses:
    • Filler in Various Materials: Silica sand flour is often used as a filler or extender in a wide range of materials, including plastics, rubber, adhesives, and sealants. Its fine particle size helps improve material properties such as reinforcement, viscosity control, and overall product consistency.
    • Construction Materials: In construction applications, it may be used in concrete and grouts to enhance flowability and reduce shrinkage. It can also improve the properties of certain mortars and coatings.
    • Ceramics and Glass Manufacturing: Silica sand flour is a critical component in the production of ceramics and glass, helping to control particle size distribution, improve melting properties, and increase the strength of final products.
    • Paints and Coatings: It is sometimes used as a functional filler in paints and coatings to enhance properties such as opacity, durability, and rheology.
    • Silica Gel Production: Silica sand flour can be used in the production of silica gel, a highly porous and absorbent material used in various industries, including moisture control and chromatography.
    • Foundry Casting: In foundry applications, it can be used as a core and mold-making material when a very fine sand is needed for intricate castings.
  6. Chemical Manufacturing: Silica sand flour may be used as a component in chemical processes, such as catalysts or as a carrier for controlled release formulations.
  7. Abrasives: In some cases, it can be used as a mild abrasive in polishing and buffing applications, particularly when a fine abrasive action is required.
  8. Health and Beauty Products: Silica sand flour is used in some health and beauty products, including toothpaste, skin creams, and cosmetics, as a thickening or abrasive agent.

Silica sand flour with a particle size of 10 microns is prized for its consistency, high purity, and ultra-fine nature, making it valuable in a wide range of industrial applications where precise control of particle size and purity is essential.
