Study on Optimization Quartz Mine for Removal Gas-Liquid Inclusions in Quartz Sand under Microwave and Acid Corrosion

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using Gas Chromatography and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), the content of metal impurity element and gas-liquid inclusions in natural crystal and ordinary silica mine of different mining area had been studied. The characteristics of silica mine which was suitable for microwave-acid etching process to remove gas fluid inclusion in quartz sand had been discussed.Our results showed that the silica mine which had low content of impurity, less content of gas-fluid inclusion and high water filling degree was suitable for the microwave-acid etching process to remove gas-liquid inclusion in quartz sand; the content of metal element impurities in quartz sand from Madagascar was nearly close to the primary natural crystal, had less content of gas-fluid inclusion and high water filling degree, and was suitable for the microwave-acid etching process to remove.
