Global Silica Sand Market Catalysed by
Functional Properties and Expanding
Applications The global silica sand market grew
at a significant rate in the recent years. The
major factor which has contributed in influencing
the market growth include its increasing
applications in different sectors such as glass
industry, foundry, hydraulic fracturing,
filtration and abrasives. The latest report by
IMARC Group titled, Silica Sand Market Global
Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity
and Forecast 2017-2022, finds that the global
silica sand market reached a volume of 116
Million Tons in 2016, growing at a CAGR of nearly
8 during 2009-2016. Silica sand, or industrial
sand, is the most commonly available varieties of
sand on earth. It is rich in quartz, a mineral,
which is composed of silicon dioxide. Some other
minerals are also present in silica sand in small
quantities such as aluminium, feldspar and
iron-bearing minerals. Silica sand used for
several industrial purposes, other than
construction, must contain high proportion of
silica and less quantity of other metals. Along
with this, the uniformity of grains and physical
characteristics (grain size, distribution, grain
shape, sphericity, grain strength and
refractoriness) also play an important role in
the industrial applications of silica
sand. Request Sample of the Report
