Chemical Science of the Silicon Atom

I would like to link to an article on silica. In particular synthetic and amorphous silica. The reason is crystalline silica is the type of silica that should be used for stain removal. Also glass is based on silicon dioxide. Cerium oxide creates the very best surface when doing light stain removal. But is up to eighty bux a pound. Whereas crystalline silica is a very small fraction of that cost. Many do not understand the difference between, silicon dioxide, crystalline silica, amorphous silica, silicates, silicon, silicone, and silanes. As Glass Smart Window Cleaners we should know the difference between these. Here is the link. Hope you like it.
