Fused Silica Bricks for Glass Industry

 DOWNLOAD

Fused silica bricks are made from amorphous silicon dioxide (SiO₂), usually produced by melting high-purity quartz sand in an electric arc furnace and then casting or shaping it. They contain over 99% SiO₂ and are known for their:

• Low thermal expansion
• Excellent thermal shock resistance
• High purity and chemical stability

Fused silica bricks are highly specialized refractory materials used in glass melting furnaces, especially in areas where high thermal shock resistance, low thermal conductivity, and chemical inertness are required.

And Typical Glass Types Benefiting from Fused Silica Bricks

• Optical glass
• Display (LCD/OLED) glass
• Pharmaceutical glass
• Borosilicate and aluminosilicate glasses
• Solar glass and specialty high-purity glasses
