Fused Silica, SiO. 2. Glass Properties. Fused silica is a noncrystalline (glass) form of silicon dioxide (quartz, sand). Typical of glasses, it lacks long range order in its atomic structure. It's highly cross linked three dimensional structure gives rise to it's high use temperature and low thermal expansion coefficient.

Silica is synonymous with silicon dioxide (SiO2). Silicon and oxygen are the two most abundant elements in the earth's crust. Silica is commonly found in nature as sand. Silica exists in many different forms that can be crystalline as well as non-crystalline (amorphous). Crystalline silica is hard, chemically inert and has a high melting point.

As such, the thermal conductivity (TC) of the bulk material is well documented. However, in many cases of interest to the thermal management of semiconductors (for example, power devices, MEMS, and low-k dielectrics), SiO 2 is used in the form of a thin layer. Unfortunately, the TC of SiO2 is about two orders of magnitude less than that of Si.

Fused silica is a non-crystalline synthetic material comprised of silicon gas or silica sand. Since it is synthetically processed, it is the purest form of glass on the market, both structurally and physically. Its cross-linked three-dimensional structure results in exceptional thermal resistance and near-zero thermal expansion.

Molding Sand (or foundry sand) is a type of sand which can hold its shape and it tends to pack very well when it is moistened and compressed. In the metal casting process, Moulding sand is used for preparing the mould cavity in which the molten metal is poured. In most of the casting operations, the silica sand (SiO 2) is used as a moulding sand.
