On silica

Between heaven and earth, all things have spirit, and the wonders of matter exist in detail. Today's discussion of silica, this is the wonder of creation in heaven and earth.

First, the source of silica
On the earth of Guanfu Mountains, silica is widely distributed. Among the rocks, there are many figures. Quartz is the crystalline form of silica, crystal clear, often born in ore veins. Its origin may be caused by the movement of the earth's crust, the cooling and condensation of magma, and it has been precipitated over time. It is also in the sand of rivers, where fine silica particles are common. This is the weathering and erosion of rocks, which are transported and deposited by water currents. As for the beach, the sand is white, and the silica content is quite high. The waves wash and the years grind, making it more pure.

Characteristics of silica
Silica is hard in texture, stable in nature, and difficult to react with many substances. Its melting point is extremely high, reaching more than 1,000 degrees, and it is not afraid of fire. The appearance is often colorless and transparent or white powder. The transparent ones are like crystals, with a lustrous luster that is pleasing to the eye; the powders are delicate and smooth to the touch. Its chemical properties are stable, resistant to acid and alkali corrosion, and can be stored for a long time in ordinary environments without deterioration.

Third, the application of silica
Silica is widely used and is related to many fields of people's livelihood. In the construction industry, the manufacture of cement and glass is indispensable. Glass products are crystal clear, or for doors and windows, which can be transparent and protected from the wind; or for appliances, which are beautiful and practical. This is the power of silica. In the electronics industry, silicon wafers are the core material, and silicon dioxide is an important foundation for the preparation of silicon wafers. The precision manufacturing of chips relies on their excellent insulation and stability to enable efficient operation of electronic devices. In the field of optics, optical fibers made of silicon dioxide transmit light and light, like electricity, so that information can reach thousands of miles away in an instant, and the world is closely connected. In daily chemicals, toothpaste, cosmetics, etc. also contain silicon dioxide. Added to toothpaste, it can enhance friction and clean teeth; used in cosmetics, it can improve texture and make application smoother.

From this perspective, although silica is an ordinary thing, it has great functions in the world. It is a precious wealth bestowed by heaven and earth on mankind. It is worthy of our in-depth investigation and good use to benefit all people and promote the progress and development of the world.
