Potash Feldspar is the main vitrifying Agent in ceramic bodies, The majority of white ware bodies contain good proportions of feldspar. It acts as a flux. In the ceramic industry the flux is defined as that portion of the body which develops glass phase. The amount of flux in a ceramic body should be only in such a proportion as to develop the desired amount of vitrification. If excess of flux is added, the fired body becomes very glassy and consequently, brittle. The glass and ceramic industries are the major consumers of feldspar and account for 95% of the total consumption.

Sodium Feldspar is generally used for three purposes:

Ball clay is commonly consisting of kaolinite, mica, and quartz. Localized seams in the same deposit have variations in composition, including the quantity of the major minerals, accessory minerals and carbonaceous materials such as lignite. They are fine-grained and plastic in nature. These ball clays are manufactured as per the requirements provided by the customers.
