classification

• Potash feldspar:

• Sodalime-feldspar:

• Crystallographically:

Feldspar is generally used for three purposes

In making the body composition of several

types of procelain, china and earthenware and

also in the preparation of glazes and enamel.

As an important ingredient in the glass sand

batch.

As a bonding agent in the manufacture of

bonded abrasives like wheels and discs of

garnet, corundum, emery etc.

The glass and ceramic industries are the major

consumers of feldspar and account for 95% of

the total consumption.
