Abstract
This invention concerns a process for purifying silica produced from an alkali silicate aqueous solution, which usually contains more than 200 ppm of impurities, to silica containing less than 30 ppm of impurities. Concretely, the purification process of silica comprises: dispersing silica gel, containing a lot of impurities, in water and filtering the solution; dispersing the filtered out silica gel again in an aqueous solution of pH 2 or less and filtering the aqueous solution; putting the silica gel to heat-treatment and acid-treatment with continuous stirring in order to break the inside siloxane link and dissolve out impurities therefrom and filtering the acid solution; rinsing a produced cake with pure water to wash away the inside residual solution and drying the cake.
