The Quartz Corp, a major supplier of High Purity Quartz sand, will be exhibiting at Intersolar USA this July.
High Purity Quartz sand from The Quartz Corp is used today in the manufacture of high performance quartz glass for semi-conductor, photovoltaic, automotive, optic, water purification, fibre-optic and general industrial applications.
The Quartz Corp produces High Purity Quartz sand from mines in Spruce Pine (USA) and Drag (Norway). High Purity Quartz sand produced from mines in Spruce Pine is the most commonly used and accepted quartz sand for use in semi-conductor and photovoltaic applications globally. Spruce Pine High Purity Quartz sand is widely approved for the use in semi-conductor applications due to its high natural purity and chemical composition.
The Quartz Corp operates processing facilities for High Purity Quartz sand both in Spruce Pine and Norway. At these facilities, The Quartz Corp applies high technology processing to produce High Purity Quartz sands with exceptionally low levels of impurities. The processing plant in Drag, Norway, has been involved in the mining industry since 1908. This expertise, combined with the high purity of the quartz from both Spruce Pine and Drag, allows The Quartz Corp to produce and supply consistent High Purity Quartz sands to their customers globally.
With the ability to manufacture High Purity Quartz sands with high quality and consistency, coupled to our global commercial presence, The Quartz Corp currently supplies customer needs across a wide range of applications, whether the needs are for '00's of kg or '000's of tonnes! Specific applications today for High Purity Quartz sand from The Quartz Corp include:
- The manufacture of Czochralski crucibles for the production of mono-crystalline silicon ingots for the photo-voltaic and semiconductor industries, using NC4A or NC4X High Purity Quartz sand.
- The manufacture of high performance tubing for automotive and industrial applications, using NC1 or NC4A.
- The manufacture of high performance quartz glass-ware (and crucibles) for the semiconductor and solar industry, using NC4X.
