Chemical Composition and Analysis
All analyses were conducted following Indian Standards (IS) and international testing protocols. The results are summarized below:
| Parameter | Result (%) | Industrial Significance |
|---|---|---|
| Electrical Conductivity (EC) | 0.014 milli mho/cm | Low EC quartz lumps are critical for producing high-purity quartz crucibles and tubes. |
| Silica (SiO₂) | 99.68% | Ensures superior purity and chemical inertness. |
| Alumina (Al₂O₃) | 0.03% | Improves clarity and prevents crystallization. |
| Ferric Oxide (Fe₂O₃) | 0.04% | Very low iron reduces coloration. |
| Titania (TiO₂) | Nil | Enhances transparency and thermal stability. |
| Lime (CaO) | 0.03% | Improves refractory performance. |
| Magnesia (MgO) | 0.05% | Improves thermal shock resistance. |
| Soda (Na₂O) | Nil | Maintains low electrical conductivity. |
| Potash (K₂O) | 0.08% | Maintains chemical stability. |
| Loss on Ignition | 0.03% | Indicates minimal volatile impurities. |
