Ya aten hta silica hpe hkyen lajang ai ladat lahkawng nga ai. Langai gaw marang htu ai ladat rai nna, shi a general process lam gaw:
Shawng nnan, quartz sand hpe soda ash hte wan sau (sh) gas hpe lang nna, bungli galaw ai hka htung ni hpe shapraw lu ai. Dai hpang, industrial water glass hpe hka hte kayau nna, n-gun langai ngai a dilute solution byin wa ai. Nkau mi a masa hta, silicon dioxide hpe n-gun jaw na matu, acid langai mi hpe bang da ai. San seng ai, hka ja ai, katsi ai, htum mat ai hpang, dai tsi silica hpe lu la ai. Hka lim ai ladat hpe grau nna garan nna, acid ladat, sol ladat, carbonization ladat, etc.
Miwa mung hta acid ladat hpe madung hkap la ai. Acid ladat hta sulfuric acid (sh) kaga acid ni lawm ai hka hta rawng ai silicate ni lawm ai. Dai reaction solution gaw pH manu langai mi de du wa ai shaloi, acid jat bang ai lam hpe jahkring kau ai, dai hpang asak kaba wa ai. Dai hpang, dai hka hpe hka hte bai kashin nna, Na2SO4 hpe shaw kau na matu hka hte bai kashin kau ai. Dai hpang, dai tsi hpe lu la na matu, katsi ai hte grinding galaw na matu sa dat ai.
