Potash Feldspar is a naturally occuring Potassium Alumino Silicate rock occurring in pegmatite bodies. Feldspar is used as a flux in ceramic and glass industries. It also adds strength to the body. Feldspar is a rare occurrence of extremely pure mineral free from mica. The chief impurities namely clay, and other foreign matter all occur as fine bodies below one mm.
It is used in many industries like Ceramics, Glass Industries, Pottery, Battery, lead-acid automotive, Beverage glass, Fluorescent light, Mirror Plate, ceramic, Polyvinylchloride (PVC) plastic pipe Sink, ceramic Television picture tube, Tile, Sanitary, bulb , tube light etc.

Potassium feldspar refers to a number of minerals in the feldspar group, and containing potassium: Orthoclase (endmember formula KAlSi3O8), an important tectosilicate mineral that forms igneous rock. Microcline, chemically the same as orthoclase, but with a different crystalline structure. Feldspar is used as a flux in ceramic and glass industries. It also adds strength to the body. Feldspar is a rare occurrence of extremely pure mineral free from mica. The chief use of Feldspar is in the Ceramic and Glass Industries. In ceramic bodies, the main vitrifying (fluxing) agent is feldspar.

About Feldspar: Feldspar is non-plastic Potassium or Sodium Alumino silicate mineral represented as KAlSi38or NaAlSi38. Feldspar is used generally for the following purposes : Ceramic Manufacturing formulations : In making the body composition of several types of ceramics and in preparation of glazes and enamel, Glass Manufacturing and Abrasive Manufacturing. It is used along with Ball Clay, Kaolin and quartz for tiles and sanitary Wares manufacturing. The presence of iron even in small quantity tends to impart coloration.
Potash Feldspar We are exporting limited quantities to Glass Industries, Artificial Marble and granite industries and ceramic industries.
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.

Feldspar is by far the most abundant group of minerals in the earth's crust, forming about 60% of terrestrial rocks. Most deposits offer sodium feldspar as well as potassium feldspar and mixed feldspars. Feldspars are primarily used in industrial applications for their alumina and alkali content. The term feldspar encompasses a whole range of materials.
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
