White crystalline granules and a stated purity ≥99.5% identify this industrial quartz-sand enquiry. The 16-120 mesh designation provides a broad grain reference for glass, metallurgy and construction assessment, with the actual supplied fraction still to be confirmed.
Resolve the grain request into a defined fraction
Ask which size specification is proposed and obtain its sieve standard and measured distribution. A broad mesh designation does not create separately selectable fractions or confirm every intermediate size. Keep the supplied grain description and sample identifier together when discussing the material.
Link the silica minimum with the relevant impurity limits
Retain the minimum sign in the ≥99.5% statement and request the current assay. Define the impurity criteria required by the intended process rather than assuming that a purity figure supplies every chemical limit. White appearance does not establish low iron or a particular optical quality.
- Glass or metallurgy brief
- Specify the process chemistry, grain requirements and qualification criteria.
- Construction brief
- Specify the intended material role and the relevant acceptance tests.
Base selection on the proposed sand
Review matched technical and safety information before assessing a representative sample. Confirm the actual fraction and chemical specification against the application brief, then record the evaluation conditions and results. No universal process benefit or unlisted grain availability is established here. Retain the sample identity, assay and sieve report as a set so a repeat enquiry can identify the quartz material actually evaluated and any changed project requirement.
