Abstract. In this chapter, the specific properties of feldspars revealed in other chapters are brought together, and the resulting general properties are used in the naming of this complex family of minerals. A brief survey of the nomenclature is given in the Summary, and Fig. S-4 gives the compositional ranges of various types of feldspars.

A single diagram, the quartz– alkali feldspar –plagioclase–feldspathoid (or "foid") double triangle (QAPF diagram) (Fig. 5) serves to classify the majority of plutonic rocks. Since quartz and feldspathoids do not crystallize together from a magma, a rock will plot in either the QAP or the FAP triangle, or occasionally on the common ...

A glaze batch of high surface tension crawls or beads up on itself, leaving bare patches of exposed clay body. Potash has a slightly lower surface tension than soda and has the lowest surface tension of all materials used in ceramics. Potash Feldspars The presence of potash feldspar in a glaze or clay body has a more refractory effect on the ...

Potash feldspar is a kind of inexpensive and widely distributed aluminosilicate mineral, and it has a Mohr hardness of 6, a density of 2.56 to 2.59 g/cm 3 and a melting temperature of 1290 °C in ...

The soda spars are used in glasses and glazes, and the high potash spars in whiteware bodies. Potassium feldspars (KAlSi 3 O 8) enable the broadest firing range and the best stability of the body against deformation during firing. Sodium feldspar (NaAlSi 3 O 8) exhibits a lower viscosity than potassium feldspar when melted at a given ...

P.C.E. values of ternary mixtures of potash feldspar, soda feldspar, and flint were determined and results shown on a solid phase diagram. No eutectics were developed with either of the binary series of feldspar and flint. The soda feldspar-flint mixtures were more refractory than were those of the potash feldspar series.

A feldspar is typically referred to as 'potash' if there is significantly more potassium than sodium (typically there will be 2-5% Na 2 O ). If the amounts are closer to equal they are termed potash-soda feldspars (or vice versa). Of course, real potash feldspars also have small amounts of CaO, MgO, Fe 2 O 3, etc.

Feldspars are important ingredients in clay bodies and glazes. In both applications, their primary function is to supply fluxes to the formulations, but they also provide additional alumina (Al2O3) and silica (SiO2). Feldspars are naturally occurring minerals and are generally classified as either potash (potassium) or soda (sodium) feldspars ...

The specific chemical formula is KAlSi3O8 – NaAlSi3O8 – CaAl2Si2O8. The minerals are chemically alert and have a stable pH value. In the Physical properties of Feldspar, we can say that the Feldspars have a monoclinic or a triclinic crystal system and the refractive index of this mineral is 1.518 – 1.526.

11.27 Feldspar Processing 11.27.1 General1 Feldspar consists essentially of aluminum silicates combined with varying percentages of potassium, sodium, and calcium, and it is the most abundant mineral of the igneous rocks. The two types of feldspar are soda feldspar (7 percent or higher Na O) and potash feldspar (8 percent or higher K O).

From XRD results (Fig. 1 ), the potential sources of K are altered K-feldspar and K-incorporating phases such as K-tobermorite and the amorphous phase (Ciceri et al. 2017a ). An additional K-bearing carbonate phase not detected by XRD was also shown to exist in the hydrothermal material (Ciceri et al. 2017a ). Fig. 2.
