Feldspar Sodic Potassic Micronized Made in Iran
Iranian feldspar, also known as feldspathic mineral, is a group of aluminosilicate minerals containing potassium, sodium, calcium, or barium. The two main commercial varieties are sodic feldspar (albite) and potassic feldspar (orthoclase), both of which are available in micronized form. With high alumina and alkali content, feldspar acts as a flux in ceramic and glass manufacturing, lowering melting temperatures and improving mechanical strength. It is widely used in glass, tiles, ceramics, sanitaryware, paints, and plastics.
The Supply Chain Department at Sahi Rasa Company supplies Iranian sodic and potassic feldspar for export to Afghanistan, Iraq, the Kurdistan Region, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, and Syria. Whether for glass production, ceramic tiles, sanitaryware, or paint fillers, the department ensures reliable supply, competitive pricing, and comprehensive logistics support.
1. Introduction to the Supply Chain Department at Sahi Rasa Company
The Supply Chain Department at Sahi Rasa Company has developed a deep specialization in feldspar exports, recognizing the critical role this mineral plays in the ceramics and glass industries. Feldspar is not a single mineral but a family of minerals with varying alkali content, and the choice between sodic and potassic feldspar can significantly affect the properties of the final product. The department's technical team helps clients navigate this choice, providing samples and technical data to support decision-making.
The department sources feldspar from Iranian deposits known for their high alkali content and low iron. The raw material is processed through crushing, grinding, and micronizing to achieve the desired particle size distribution. The department's quality control laboratory tests each batch for chemical composition, particle size, and whiteness.
For clients in Afghanistan, the Kurdistan Region, Iraq, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, and Syria, the Supply Chain Department at Sahi Rasa Company offers a reliable supply chain with flexible delivery options and comprehensive technical support.
2. Product Overview
Feldspar is the most abundant mineral group in the Earth's crust, constituting about 60% of terrestrial rocks. It is a framework silicate mineral containing aluminum, silicon, and oxygen, along with potassium, sodium, calcium, or barium. The two most common varieties are:
Potassic feldspar (orthoclase, KAlSi₃O₈): Contains potassium as the dominant alkali. It melts at a higher temperature than sodic feldspar and is preferred in ceramic bodies where high strength and translucency are required.
Sodic feldspar (albite, NaAlSi₃O₈): Contains sodium as the dominant alkali. It melts at a lower temperature and is preferred in glazes and glass batches.
In the ceramics industry, feldspar acts as a flux, reducing the melting point of the ceramic body and promoting vitrification. This results in a dense, strong, and translucent product. Feldspar is a key ingredient in ceramic tiles, sanitaryware, tableware, and porcelain insulators. In the glass industry, feldspar provides alumina, which improves chemical durability and mechanical strength. It is used in container glass, flat glass, and fiberglass. In paints, feldspar is used as an extender pigment that improves durability, brightness, and rheology. In plastics, it is used as a filler that improves stiffness and dimensional stability.
The Supply Chain Department at Sahi Rasa Company offers feldspar in both sodic and potassic varieties, as well as blends, in micronized form.
