Silica Crystal (SiO₂)

Product Overview
Silica (SiO₂), also known as silica stone, is a crucial inorganic compound with widespread use in industries such as glass manufacturing, optics, and electronics. Crystalline silica exhibits high density and melting point, along with outstanding chemical stability. It is insoluble in water and reacts with hydrofluoric acid to form silicon tetrafluoride. The superior properties of silica crystals allow them to maintain stability even in high-temperature and high-pressure environments, making them suitable for various advanced technological applications.
