Apr 7, 2021Silica sand is the primary source of silicon dioxide that is essential in the manufacture of glass. To be suitable for producing glass, there must be a very high proportion of silica (above 95%) in the composition of the sand. That's why most sand deposits are not of sufficient purity for glassmaking.
