Potassium feldspar, also known as K-Feldspar, is a common type of feldspar mineral that is composed of potassium, aluminium, and silica. It is one of the most abundant minerals in the Earth's crust and is found in many types of rocks, including granite, gneiss, and pegmatite, that has a wide range of industrial and scientific applications. Its unique properties make it a valuable resource in a variety of fields, from manufacturing to geology. For example, it is a key ingredient in the manufacture of glass and ceramics, where it is used as a flux to lower the melting point of the materials. It is also used as filler in plastics, rubber, and other materials. We, SRS Minerals are equipped to supply Good quality K-Feldspar, with Potassium content up to 12% in Lumps from 1-300mm size, and in powder form, if required.
Introduction: - Feldspar is primarily used in industrial applications for its alumina and alkali content. Feldspar is a naturally occurring anhydrous, inorganic, igneous rock. The fusibility of the mineral makes it useful raw material for many applications and the purity is the indication of better fusibility in the application. There are two types of it depending On Na2O and K2O SODA FELDSPAR POTASH FELDSPAR Applications: - CERAMICS ENAMEL FRITZ & GLAZED INSULATORS GLASS MILD ABRASIVES PICTURE TUBES SANITARYWARE TABLEWARE VITRIFIED TILES WELDING ELECTRODE Available Mesh Size: - 100 - 500 MESH Custom sizes and Material of required specifications can be made in case of Bulk and Regular orders.

The feldspar mineral is by far the most plentiful mineral found beneath the earth. It is used in most of the daily usage products. Feldspars are classified into three types: feldspar, pegmatite, and feldspathic sand, and their alumina and alkali content make them ideal for industrial purposes Feldspars and pegmatites are useful functional fillers in the paint and glue industries, as well as fluxing agents in ceramics and glass manufacture. Feldsparâ??s physical properties include high potassium and low iron content. It has pH stability and has consistent hardness with a rating of 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale. It is majorly found and mined in the state of Rajasthan. We at Aryan tiles develop Feldspar minerals with the specialized qualities to cater to the specific industries such as ceramics, glass, and paints to mention a few. Feldspar is an excellent source of alumina leading to improvement in the end-product hardness, durability, and chemical corrosion resistance. A feldspar is typically referred to as 'potash' if there is significantly more potassium than sodium (typically there will be 2-5% Na2O). It is also used as fluxing agent for flat and container glass, as well as insulation wools and also in the ceramic industry. Our Feldspar mineral is known for its low quantities of colored oxides, making them ideal for manufacturing white tiles and sanitary ware. Further, Feldspar is also used in paints industry as it has great dispersibility, chemical inertness, pH stability, abrasion resistance and low viscosity. White soda feldspar has high sodium content. It is a common raw ingredient used in glass, ceramics, and to some extent in paint, plastics, and rubber as a filler and extender. The alumina from feldspar improves the hardness, durability, and chemical corrosion resistance of glass. Feldspar's alkalis (calcium oxide, potassium oxide, and sodium oxide) operate as a flux in ceramics, reducing the melting temperature of a mixture. We at Aryan Tiles have an enormous selection of both white potash and white soda feldspar minerals. We have a deep understanding of how our Feldspar minerals can be used in manufacturing our customersâ?? end-products and suit their particular industryâ??s needs. And, thus we have been able to supply to various industries and optimize our customersâ?? product manufacturing with our premium quality mineral

feldspar is the name given to a group of minerals distinguished by the presence of alumina and silica (SiO2) in their chemistry. This group includes aluminum silicates of soda, potassium, or lime. It is the single most abundant mineral group on Earth. They account for an estimated 60% of exposed rocks, as well as soils, clays, and other unconsolidated sediments, and are principal components in rock classification schemes. The minerals included in this group are the orthoclase, microcline and plagioclase feldspars. please send us your inquiry to get you the price.
