In daily life, quartz sand is widely used. For example, when making marble, quartz sand is mostly added to get higher quality of marble. Therefore, the usage rate of quartz sand is quite high. But many people still don’t know much about quartz sand, so this article will help you popularize the difference between quartz sand and silica sand and the application of quartz sand in cement. Are quartz sand and silica sand the same thing? The two are not the same.

: The general color is colorless, transparent, pure white and the hardness is 7. The performance is stable and the chemical composition has a strong anisotropy in thermal and mechanical properties. Besides, the fracture is shell-like, no cleavage is brittle. And the content of sio2 is in the 98.5% or more. : The color is pure white, but it is not shiny, and the purity is high, so it is also called high-purity quartz sand, with uniform particle size, less impurities, and sio2 content below 98.5%.

Compared with the surface, quartz is brighter than silica sand, but the particles of silica sand are rounder than quartz, and the hand feels better than quartz. In terms of refractory materials, quartz has a higher refractoriness. Can quartz sand be used as a cement floor? Yes, it can be used.

The addition of quartz powder/sand can form a kind of crystallization center, which can crystallize around the quartz powder/sand and grow the crystals during cement hydration, and can also increase the density of cement. In addition, the quartz powder/sand itself has a certain activity and can be hydrated, thereby filling the pores, reducing the porosity of the cement stone, improving the integrity of the cement stone, and making it less likely to be damaged. Which equipment is practical for quartz sand making?

According to the scale of quartz sand processing and production, small composite crushing sand making machines and large VSI sand making machines are recommended for practical sand making equipment.

a. Compound crushing sand making machine-production capacity: 5~100t/h

The crushing ratio is large, which is more ideal for the processing of materials with high moisture content. It is usually used in small sandfields.

The output particle size can be adjusted arbitrarily, and there is no screen bar setting, and the material with large sediment content will not be blocked.

The inside is equipped with a dustproof board, which has good sealing performance, avoiding the splashing of small materials after crushing, with less dust and low working noise.

b. VSI sand making machine-production capacity: 40~650t/h

High sand formation rate and high crushing effect, usually used in large and medium-sized sand fields.

The quality of the finished product is solid, without crushing, and cube-shaped, which fully meets the high-standard sand making standards.

The impact force is large, can provide a larger range of use, can meet the production needs of different users.

The two types of sand making machines introduced above are widely used in the processing of quartz stone, and can be additionally equipped with various crushers, sand washing machines, and vibrating screen equipment to form a closed loop production line, improve the production efficiency of machine-made sand, and obtain higher economic benefits.

In the actual production process, the selection of quartz stone crushing and sand making equipment is different according to the different needs of customers for finished quartz sand products, and the specific conditions are treated specifically.
