Introduction to Silica:
Silica (Silicon Dioxide) is one of the most abundant minerals in nature, commonly found in sand, quartz, and other minerals. Due to its unique physical and chemical properties, it has wide applications across various industries.
Industrial silica plays a crucial role in the production of glass, ceramics, construction materials, and paints. In water treatment, it is used as a filtration medium to remove suspended particles. In its food-grade form, food-grade silica is used in dietary supplements and food products as an anti-caking agent and texture enhancer.
