Product details

Quartz Feldspar is a significant mineral in the Earth's crust, commonly used in various industrial applications. This mineral combination is especially valued in the ceramic and glass industries for its high melting point, durability, and ability to improve the hardness and strength of the final products. Quartz Feldspar typically consists of both quartz (silicon dioxide) and feldspar (potassium, sodium, and calcium alumino-silicates), making it an ideal fluxing agent in ceramic and glass production.

Applications

Ceramics: Quartz feldspar is extensively used in the production of porcelain, earthenware, and stoneware. Its primary role is to act as a flux, which lowers the melting temperature of the mixture, improving the formation of glassy phase and enhancing the strength and durability of the ceramic products.

Glass: It is a significant ingredient in glass manufacturing, helping to improve the hardness, durability, and resistance to corrosion of the glass products.

Enamel and Glazes: Quartz feldspar is used in the production of enamels and glazes, providing the necessary fluxing action and contributing to the aesthetic qualities of the final product.

Abrasives: Used in abrasive products due to its hardness and durability.

Filler: Used as a filler in paints, plastics, and rubber to improve product properties.
