Functional Quartz Solutions for Specialized Uses

Beyond mainstream industries, EB TA supplies technically controlled quartz products for specialized industrial processes. Our quartz is valued for its hardness, chemical inertness, thermal resistance, and stable particle engineering — enabling consistent performance in demanding operational environments.

Refractory Industry

High-Temperature Resistance & Mechanical Strength

Quartz is used in refractory bricks and crucible lining systems due to its high strength and resistance to thermal stress. EB TA supports refractory producers with stable mineral behavior and controlled size distribution.

  • Supports dimensional stability at elevated temperatures
  • Contributes to structural strength in refractory formulations
  • Engineered particle distribution for consistent mixing
Abrasives (Sandblasting & Grinding)

Hardness-Driven Abrasion Performance

Due to its hardness and corrosion resistance, quartz is widely used for abrasive operations such as blasting media, glass grinding, scouring powders, sanding, and cutting sand applications.

  • Predictable abrasion rate with controlled PSD
  • Stable behavior under mechanical friction
  • Available in granular grades for blasting and surface treatment
Fillers (Adhesive, Putty, Paint, Rubber)

Durability, Inertness, and Reinforcement

Quartz sand and ground quartz are used as functional fillers to enhance durability, chemical stability, strength, and wear resistance in industrial formulations.

  • Improves mechanical reinforcement and abrasion resistance
  • Enhances chemical inertness of the final compound
  • Supports controlled viscosity and formulation stability
Filtration Media

Reliable Filtration for Industrial & Water Systems

Quartz is used as filtration sand in industrial water treatment, pools, and utility water purification systems. EB TA provides consistent grading for predictable filtration performance and flow control.

  • Stable particle geometry for consistent permeability
  • Supports effective suspended-solid removal
  • Custom grading options based on filtration design

FAQ – Other Industrial Applications

Which “other” industries can EB TA quartz support?

EB TA quartz supports refractory production, abrasives, fillers for chemical/industrial formulations, and filtration systems in industrial and utility water treatment.

Why is quartz used in refractory materials?

Quartz contributes mechanical strength and supports high-temperature performance, making it suitable for refractory bricks and crucible lining applications when properly engineered.

What makes EB TA quartz suitable for abrasive applications?

Quartz hardness and chemical resistance enable stable abrasive behavior. EB TA controls particle size distribution to deliver predictable performance in blasting, grinding, and sanding.

Can you provide quartz grades specifically for sandblasting?

Yes. EB TA can supply granular grades aligned with sandblasting and surface treatment requirements, with controlled PSD and consistent supply continuity.

How does quartz function as a filler in industrial formulations?

Quartz improves durability, wear resistance, and chemical inertness. It can also stabilize rheology in adhesives, putties, paints, and rubber compounds.

Do you offer powder and granular forms for these applications?

Yes. EB TA provides both granular and dry-ground powder forms. Selection depends on your process, target texture, and dispersion requirements.

How is particle size verified?

Particle size distribution is verified through laser diffraction (e.g., Malvern Mastersizer) and sieve analysis (e.g., Retsch systems), ensuring repeatability.

Is EB TA quartz chemically treated?

No. EB TA focuses on physical beneficiation methods to preserve the natural integrity of the mineral while achieving industrial specifications.

Which packaging options are available?

Packaging options include Big-Bag and Silo Truck depending on product form and logistics requirements. Custom arrangements are available upon request.
