Quartz sand  1. Character and structure
Quartz sand is hard、wearproof and steady chemical property.Its main composition is SiO2.It，s milky-white or colourless translucent.The hardness is 7.Its density is about 2.65g/cm3.Quartz stone and quartz sand made by us can be divided into quartz sand、 refined quartz sand and specially made refined quartz sand.
