Abstract

Industrial processing of SiO2con-tributes to the variability of itshazard.•Modifications affecting a SiO2-richsand in cast iron production wereinvestigated.•Numerous changes in sample mor-phology and surface reactivity weretraced.•No cellular responses were observedwith the processed powder.•Temperature change and contamina-tion by C represent critical steps inthe process.
