Examination was discovered that in the original about 8 0 0 m 2 / g Atsuta ratio surface area 3 0 0 ° near the C is decreased by approximately 2 5 0 m 2 / g Nima. This suggests that the very small pores present in the original silica were crushed before the temperature exceeded 300 ° C, which reduced the desilanol efficiency.

- this silanol group content of the sample quartz glass powder was normal pressure molten is 105 p pm, the viscosity at 1400 ° C 3. was 1 X 10 1 0 poise.
- the silanol group content of the obtained quartz glass was 1 32 ppm.
- the sample obtained by melting this quartz glass powder at normal pressure had a silanol group content of 133 ppm and a viscosity at 140 ° C. of 2.9 ⁇ 10 10 poise.
- the hydrous silica gel can be dehydrated with high industrial suitability in terms of energy cost, and further, with high industrial suitability and high energy cost.
- Synthetic quartz glass powder can be manufactured with a high purity. Therefore, the synthetic quartz glass powder obtained by the present invention is useful as a raw material for heat-treated members for semiconductors, crucibles for pulling semiconductor single crystals, optical members, and the like.
