Quartz Fabric

Quartz fiber is a specialized fiber made from high-purity quartz crystals. It is produced by softening quartz rods using an oxyhydrogen flame and then drawing filaments from the softened rods to create the fibers. Due to the energy-intensive process required to produce high-purity quartz, quartz fiber is more expensive than alternatives like glass fiber and high-silica fiber, limiting its applications.

Quartz fiber is created by heating quartz rods in an oxyhydrogen flame, which softens the quartz. Filaments are then drawn from these rods to form quartz fibers. For optical fiber applications, elements like germanium and phosphorus can be added to increase the refractive index. Quartz fiber has a high tensile strength, reaching up to 800 kilopounds per square inch (5,500 MPa). It is chemically stable, especially in the presence of halogens, and has higher thermal resistance compared to materials like S-glass or E-glass.
