CHEMICAL
PROPERTIES OF SANDSTONE & QUARTZITE |
Chemically they are
very resistant Mono-Mineralic rocks, principally of silica. |
SiO2 |
93-94% |
Iron (Fe2O3) |
1.5%-1.6% |
Alumina (Al2O3) |
1.4 to 1.5% |
Soda (Na2O) & Potash
(Kro) |
1.0% to 1.2% |
Lime (CaO) |
0.8% to 0.9% |
Magnesia (MgO) |
0.2 to 0.25% |
Loss On Ignition (LOI) |
1.0% to 1.2%. |
They are highly resistant to avoids,
alkalis and thermal impact. Insolubility in acids and alkalis is
about 97%. |
