Feldspar Sodium Felspar comprises of a complex
series of aluminosilicates with varying amounts of potassium,
sodium and, calcium. We are a leading supplier of sodium
felspar (Na2O.Al2O3 .6SiO2
).
We
are supplying Sodium felspar occurring in various grades and
mesh sizes.
Uses Sodium feldsparis
highly used due to the alumina content and the minerals ability to
act as a flux.The alumina content of sodium feldspar is over *9%;
this enhances the impact and thermal shock
resistance Furthermore Sodium feldspar can be used in
paints, plastics, ceramic flooring, fritz and
glazes.is
used traditionally as a main source of alumina and alkali in
ceramic and glass industries which account for more than *0% of its
consumption. It also finds use as functional filler in paint,
plastic, rubber and adhesive; as a binding agent in abrasives; and
in the manufacture of artificial teeth, fertilizer and white
cement.
In
Ceramic Industry,
Sodium feldspar is used as fluxing agent which facilitates
softening, melting and wetting of batch constituents. The flux
controls the degree of vitrification of the ceramic body during
firing.
For
Glass Industry,
the alkali content in felspar acts as a flux, which not only
facilitates lowering the glass batch melting temperature but also
cuts production cost.
In
the Abrasive Industry,
plagioclase felspar is used as a mild abrasive material in scouring
powders because of its semi-conchoidal fracture and its hardness
which is 6 on Mohs' scale.
In
Refractory Industry,
felspar is used as one of the batch constituents in the manufacture
of acidproof refractories.
In
Welding Electrode
Industry,
felspar is used as a flux which acts as an arc stabiliser and helps
to protect the molten metal from aerial
oxidation.
Selectively picked and cleaned White Firing
High Grade Sodium Feldspar Typically used in Frits, Ceramic Glazes,
Sanitaryware, Tablewawre, White Glass, TV Tubes etc. The mineral
can be supplied in all the forms (Powder, Grain and Lumps) and mesh
sizes as per customers
requirement.
