Silica powder (Microsilica/Silica Flour) has emerged as one of the most vital industrial materials, proving its high efficiency across multiple sectors.

Far from being a mere raw material, it is an essential component in manufacturing everything from high-strength concrete to advanced chemical and healthcare products.

Zohdy Minerals Egypt has successfully pioneered the transformation of natural raw silica into high-grade industrial products exported to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

We ensure the highest standards of purity and performance for all applications. Implementing silica powder is now a necessity for any industry aiming to enhance quality, increase durability, and optimize physical and chemical properties.

Silica Powder in Glass Manufacturing

Silica powder is the fundamental ingredient in all types of glass. It provides the final product with transparency and high structural strength.

• Applications: Clear glass, reinforced glass, window panes, and doors.

• Specialty Uses: High-precision heat-resistant and shock-resistant glass. The quality of glass depends heavily on silica purity; higher purity means better resistance to cracks and breakage.

Zohdy Minerals Egypt provides ultra-high purity silica powder, making it the ideal choice for glass manufacturers in Saudi Arabia looking to reduce production losses and maintain a competitive edge.

 Structural Reinforcement in Construction

In the construction sector, silica powder is pivotal for enhancing material quality. When added to concrete and cement:

• Micro-filling Effect: It fills the microscopic voids in concrete, reducing permeability and significantly increasing load-bearing capacity.

• Durability: It makes buildings more resistant to corrosion and chemical attacks, extending their operational lifespan.

• Climate Resilience: It minimizes cracks caused by temperature fluctuations, making it perfect for mega-projects in arid environments.

High-Performance Chemical Industries

Silica powder serves as a core raw material in various chemical processes:

• Corrosion Resistance: Used in producing acid and alkali-resistant materials.

• Catalysis: Acts as a carrier or catalyst in complex chemical reactions.

• Water Treatment: Its unique properties allow it to absorb impurities and suspended solids during fluid purification. Zohdy Minerals Egypt ensures a reliable supply for the Saudi chemical sector, guaranteeing optimal performance and energy efficiency during manufacturing.

 The Rubber and Plastic Industries

Silica powder is a reinforcing filler that improves the mechanical properties of rubber and polymers:

• Tire Manufacturing: Enhances heat resistance and reduces rolling resistance in high-quality tires.

• Plastic Polymers: Improves hardness and structural stability, reducing deformation caused by heat or long-term use.

• Aesthetics: It enhances surface finish, giving products a polished and commercially attractive appearance.

Filtration and Purification Systems

Silica is extensively used in water and air filtration. It effectively removes contaminants, ensuring the purity of industrial raw materials and chemicals.

• Cost Efficiency: By improving flow rates and reducing internal system contamination, it lowers maintenance costs and extends the life of filtration infrastructure.

 Healthcare and Cosmetics

In the personal care sector, silica powder acts as a crucial auxiliary agent:

• Cosmetics: Improves the texture of creams and lotions, absorbs excess moisture, and provides a smooth skin feel.

• Oral Care: A key ingredient in toothpaste for its cleaning and protective properties. Zohdy Minerals Egypt offers safe, non-toxic products that meet the rigorous safety standards required by the Saudi health and beauty markets.

Anti-Caking in the Food Industry

In food production, silica powder is used as a high-efficiency anti-caking agent:

• Flowability: Prevents clumping in powders, ensuring smooth movement through production lines and reducing waste.

• Preservation: Maintains the quality and flavor of dry food products, supplements, and animal feed over long storage periods.
