CAS 99439-28-8
:Silicon dioxide
Description:
Silicon dioxide, commonly known as silica, is a chemical compound composed of silicon and oxygen, with the formula SiO₂. It is a naturally occurring mineral found in various forms, including quartz, sand, and glass. Silica is characterized by its high melting point, chemical stability, and hardness, making it an essential material in various industrial applications. It is insoluble in water and most organic solvents, and it exhibits low reactivity with acids, although it can be dissolved in strong bases. Silica is widely used in the production of glass, ceramics, and concrete, as well as in the food and pharmaceutical industries as an anti-caking agent. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in the manufacture of semiconductors and as a filler in rubber and plastics. In terms of health, inhalation of fine silica dust can pose respiratory risks, leading to conditions such as silicosis. Overall, silicon dioxide is a versatile and significant compound in both natural and industrial contexts.
