Since high purity quartz is the most preferred material of choice to enhance the performance of products in the semiconductor industry. In turn, this would fuel the use in the semiconductor industry of high-purity quartz in the coming years.
Increasing adoption of high purity quartz in the solar industry
The raw material used in the solar cell industry to produce crucibles is high pure quartz (HPQ) sand. As the cost of solar is decreasing and efficiency continues to rise, solar becomes increasingly viable worldwide. The most economical option for meeting the steady rise in quality requirements in the solar industry is highly pure quartz sand. For all c-Si PV modules silicon is considered as the base material. In the production of multi-crystalline silicone for use in solar PV cells, large rectangular crucibles are used. Also, monocrystalline silicon processing includes rounded crypts made of pure solar quartz. Gradually, numerous countries around the world are focusing on renewable sources of clean energy.
