Side Effects of Silicon Dioxide

Silica, its side effects are quite serious in the world. Silicon dioxide, although it is useful for all things, it also has potential problems.

If the human body is exposed to too much silica and inhales its dust particles, it can cause damage to the lungs. Long-term accumulation in the lungs, prone to silicosis disease. Patients often feel that they cannot breathe well, when working, they wheeze more, cough frequently, and even have unbearable chest pain. This is because silica dust particles invade the lungs, causing damage to the texture of the lungs and weakening the ability to breathe.

Furthermore, in the environment, if silica disperses in large quantities, it will also affect the surrounding ecology. It can cause air turbidity, reduce visibility, and disturb traffic. And it also affects plants, or causes dust on the surface of their leaves, hinders photosynthesis, and damages the growth and development of plants.

As for industrial production, although silica is a commonly used raw material, if the processing process is not well protected, workers are often exposed to silica dust, and their health is vulnerable. Therefore, the use and treatment of silica should be taken with caution to prevent its side effects from harming the human body and the environment.
