Potash Feldspar Chips: Your Premium Source of Alumina and Potassium

Potash feldspar chips are a naturally occurring, igneous rock primarily composed of potassium feldspar minerals, such as orthoclase and microcline. These chips offer a cost-effective and sustainable source of alumina (Al₂O₃) and potash (K₂O), making them a versatile ingredient in various industrial applications. Our high-quality chips are carefully sourced and processed to ensure consistent size, purity, and performance.

Key Features & Benefits:

• High Alumina and Potash Content: Our potash feldspar chips provide a significant source of both alumina and potash, crucial elements in numerous manufacturing processes. The exact composition varies depending on the specific geological source, but typical ranges are provided in the specifications below.
• Consistent Particle Size: We offer a range of particle sizes to suit your specific needs, ensuring efficient processing and optimal performance in your application. Custom sizes are also available upon request. (See available sizes below).
• High Purity: Our mining and processing methods prioritize purity, minimizing contaminants and ensuring a consistent product.
• Sustainable and Renewable Resource: Potash feldspar is a naturally occurring and renewable resource, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic materials.
• Cost-Effective Solution: Compared to synthetic sources of alumina and potash, our potash feldspar chips offer a competitive price point, making them an economically viable option.
• Excellent Fluxing Properties: The high alkali content contributes to excellent fluxing properties, making them beneficial in ceramic and glass applications.

Typical Chemical Composition (may vary slightly):

• SiO₂ (Silica): [Insert typical range, e.g., 65-70%]
• Al₂O₃ (Alumina): [Insert typical range, e.g., 18-22%]
• K₂O (Potash): [Insert typical range, e.g., 4-6%]
• Na₂O (Soda): [Insert typical range, e.g., 1-3%]
• Other Oxides: [Insert typical range, e.g., < 2%]

Available Particle Sizes:

• [List available size ranges, e.g., -4 +8 mesh, -8 +16 mesh, -16 +30 mesh, custom sizes available]

Applications:

• Ceramics: Used as a flux, improving the properties of ceramic bodies.
• Glass Manufacturing: Acts as a flux and contributes to the desired properties of the glass.
• Frit Production: A key ingredient in the production of frits for glazes and enamels.
• Abrasives: Used in the production of some abrasive materials.
• Foundry Applications: Used as a fluxing agent in foundry sands.
• Other Industrial Applications: Potash feldspar finds use in various other applications, including agriculture (as a soil amendment – although this should be thoroughly researched before use), and fillers.

Packaging:

• Available in bulk bags (specify weight) and customized packaging options.

Safety Precautions:

• While generally considered inert, standard dust mask and safety glasses should be worn during handling to avoid potential inhalation of dust. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive safety information.
