In the production process of ceramics, feldspar is utilized as a fluxing agent to lower the melting temperature of raw materials. This ensures proper vitrification and helps create a dense and non-porous structure in finished ceramic products.
Additionally, feldspar acts as a filler material that aids in reducing shrinkage during firing processes. It also improves the thermal shock resistance of ceramics by promoting even heat distribution throughout the material.
Feldspar of importance to ceramics are aluminosilicates of sodium, potassium and calcium. They are used as fluxes to form a glassy phase in bodies, promoting verification and translucency. The pure spars are albite (NaAlSi3O8), orthoclase or microcline (KAlSi3O8) and anorthite (CaAl2Si2O8).
Aasan Microns Private Limited have a wide range and many different grades of Feldspar — including both Potash and Soda Feldspar.
Rich in sodium and potassium alkalis essential for glass formation in ceramic bodies.
Allows consuming less raw materials by limiting shrinkage during firing processes.
Increases the fired flexural strength in the tile body for superior durability.
Improves the whiteness of ceramic bodies for cleaner, more premium finished products.
Stabilizes firing temperature with a broad thermal range for consistent results.
Contributes good whiteness and glossiness to finished ceramic surfaces.
Aasan Microns Private Limited operates a state-of-the-art Process unit for Potash Feldspar & Soda Feldspar that includes both wet and dry process units. Their dry processing ensures consistency in particle size, purity and efficiency while minimizing environmental impact.
The wet process unit utilizes water to refine and purify the material, ideal for applications requiring high levels of purity. The dry process unit, on the other hand, mechanically processes the mineral without water, making it cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
Together these units allow Aasan Microns to offer a wide range of high-quality Potash Feldspar and Soda Feldspar products tailored for industries such as ceramics, glass and sanitary ware.
Our Feldspar is trusted across a wide range of industries for its consistent quality and superior performance.
