- fire-dried -

1. General characteristics
Crystal quartz sand from SCHLINGMEIER is multiple washed and hydroclassified.
The sand is characterized by its extremely high chemical and mineralogical purity.
After processing the sand is neutral in pH, free of organic contaminations, soluble
salts and soilings. One of the most conspicuous characteristics is its high whiteness
and brightness. Delivery is made in bulk, paper or PE-bags or big bags.
2. Grain size distribution
Sieve mesh opening (mm) - Retainings (wt.%)
