Feldspar Minerals Suppliers and Manufacturers

Feldspar, any of a group of aluminosilicate minerals that contain calcium, sodium, or potassium. Feldspard make up more than half of Earth crust, and professional literature about them constitutes a large percentage of the literature of mineralogy. Of the more than 3,000 known mineral species, less than 0.1 percent make up the bulk of Earth crust and mantle. These and an additional score of minerals serve as the basis for naming most of the rocks exposed on Earth surface. Description and Identifying Characteristics Feldsparis derived from the German word feld,which means field, and spar, which means crystal. This name reflects the minerals abundance, as most crystalline material found in the field is feldspar. Potassium feldspard are the feldspar minerals in which the silicate tetrahedral and aluminum tetrahedra are bound with potassium ions, rather than sodium or calcium ions as in the plagioclase feldspar subgroup. The potassium feldspar group is composed of three mineral polymorphs, each having the same chemical composition, but slightly different crystal structures. Technically these are distinct minerals, but their physical properties are so similar that they are usually only identified as potassium feldspar in the field. Using other minerals in the rock to determine the host rocks identity is often the most useful guide to their probable identity. felsic plutonic igneous rocks and metamorphic rocks Microcline

About Sodium Feldspar Ganesh Group of Industries is the Sodium Feldspar Powder suppliers in India. In ceramic bodies, the main vitrifying (fluxing) agent is feldspar. The majority of white ware bodies contain good proportions of feldspar. It acts as a flux. In the ceramic industry, the flux is defined as that portion of the body which develops glass phase. This is provided mostly by feldspar. The amount of flux in a ceramic body should be only in such a proportion as to develop the desired amount of vitrification. If excess of flux is added, the fired body becomes very glassy and consequently, brittle. The glass and ceramic industries are the major consumers of feldspar and account for 95% of the total consumption. Feldspar is generally used for Ceramics, Glass, Electrodes We produce Sodium Feldspar in forms of : Granular Particles Powder (150-25 microns) lumps form 1 inches to 15 inches

Potassium Feldspar is a common mineral known for its high potassium content. It is used in ceramics and glass production due to its excellent melting properties. This mineral exhibits a vitreous luster and is often white or pink in color. Potassium Feldspar is valued for its role in reducing the melting temperature of materials in the production of glass and glazes. It is an essential component in the manufacturing of porcelain and other ceramic products.

Minerals like feldspar, quartz, bentonite, kaolin, dolomite, , aggregate, coarse & fine aggregates, manganese dioxide, , etc.

What is Potash Feldspar? Potassium feldspar is a group of minerals which contain potassium and belong to the feldspar group. It is either colorless or very light in color. K-feldspar is another name for it. Furthermore, potassium feldspar is divided into two types: microcline and orthoclase. What are the specifications of Potash Feldspar?

Potash feldspars are more commonly used in ceramics, matte glazes, and they can create a crystallographic structure which helps them to be bright. Itâ??s also one of the most vital elements in ceramic glazes for medium and high temperatures. Potash feldspar can be used in industry to make it harder to disable the material surface. What are the other uses? In the paint, plastic, rubber, and adhesive industries, potash feldspar is used as a fluxing agent. Itâ??s also used as a concrete mixture. Enamel, scouring powder, and glass are all made with it. Potassium feldspar comes in a variety of colors and has the same economic value as a gold ring. Potash feldspars are significant as stone elements; they are found in alkali and acidic igneous rocks, especially syenites, stones, pegmatites, and gneisses in large quantities

Characteristics of Potash Feldspar : Feldspar is a largely abundant group of minerals in the earth’s crust, which forms around 60% of available terrestrial rocks. The deposits provided sodium feldspar and potassium feldspar with mixed feldspars. Feldspar minerals are an indispensable component in igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks, to such a level that the arrangement of a number of rocks having a base with required feldspar content. The mineralogical composition of most feldspar can be articulated in terms of the ternary system Orthoclase, Albite as well as Anorthite. Key Usage of Potash Feldspar Feldspar is an important part of our daily life and the two key properties which make feldspars practical to use for downstream industries are the availability of alkali and alumina content. Feldspars play an imperative role as fluxing agents in ceramics and glass applications, and also are utilized as functional fillers in the plastic, paint, rubber as well as in adhesive sectors.
