Aalok Overseas — Trusted Supplier of Controlled-Grade Potash Feldspar / Kali Feldspar / Feldspat
Engineered for Ceramics · Tiles · Glass · Sanitaryware · Paint · Rubber · Plastics
A critical industrial mineral used across ceramics, tiles, glass, and more — and quality makes all the difference.
High purity Potassium Feldspar means controlled, consistently low Fe₂O₃ content (iron oxide below 0.1%), stable K₂O / Na₂O ratios, minimal TiO₂, and freedom from coarse inclusions — all of which directly prevent discoloration, black specks, and shade variation in ceramic products.
Higher K₂O (Potassium Oxide) content — ideally 10–12% — reduces viscosity during firing, improves glass formation, and enhances product durability. Fluctuating K₂O ratios from inconsistent raw material supply are a leading cause of batch rejection in porcelain and GVT tile production.
Iron (Fe₂O₃) is the enemy of white ceramics. Even 0.3–0.5% extra iron causes yellow-grey tones that fail premium export quality checks. Aalok Overseas's controlled-grade feldspar achieves ultra-low iron levels ensuring consistently high L* (lightness) values for porcelain and GVT tiles.
Consistent particle size distribution (200 or 325 mesh) and stable mineralogy mean predictable melting behavior. This translates to stable firing cycles, lower kiln temperatures, reduced fuel consumption, and fewer thermal shocks — measurable energy savings per tonne of production.
Aalok Overseas Potassium Feldspar — Controlled Grade for Ceramic, Tile & Glass Industries
| Parameter | Typical Value | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| K₂O (Potassium Oxide) | 10% – 12% | Primary flux; higher K₂O = better melting and glass formation |
| Na₂O (Sodium Oxide) | 1% – 3% | Controlled ratio prevents phase separation and shade variation |
| SiO₂ (Silica) | 63% – 66% | Structural network forming agent in ceramic body |
| Al₂O₃ (Alumina) | 17% – 19% | Contributes mechanical strength and chemical resistance |
| Fe₂O₃ (Iron Oxide) | < 0.10% – 0.15% | Ultra-low iron = pure white finish, no black specks |
| TiO₂ (Titanium Oxide) | < 0.05% | Minimized for maximum whiteness and clarity |
| CaO + MgO | < 0.5% | Controlled to prevent lime popping defects |
| LOI (Loss on Ignition) | < 1.0% | Low LOI ensures clean firing without gas entrapment |
| Mesh / Particle Size | 200 Mesh / 325 Mesh | Fine, uniform grinding for homogeneous mixing and sintering |
| Whiteness (L* Value) | 93 – 96+ | Consistent high L value ensures repeatable tile color across batches |
| Moisture | < 1% | Dry material for easy handling and precise formulation |
| Packaging | 25 kg / 50 kg Bags · Jumbo Bags · Bulk | Flexible for all production scales |
