Refractories

Chromite sand is a natural spinel. It is a high-performance foundry sand for foundries. After crushing, grinding and sieving, it is separated into prescribed grain sizes and is suitable for foundries.

Rutile 95 is a natural sand. It has a high refractive index and is known for its brilliant metallic luster and inclusion of deep red coloration. It has a wide range of applications:

- Titanium dioxide production

- Welding electrodes

- Ceramics

- Electronics

- Solar panels

- Aerospace industry

Used for the production of coatings (coatings) of welding electrodes for manual arc welding, providing excellent arc control, weld toughness and strength, and easy removal of welding slag (by making it porous). It is also used as an additive to increase strength in metal alloys and as a stabilizing component in high-temperature firing in ceramics.

Zircon flour is a finely ground form of zircon sand, typically with particle sizes ranging from a few micrometers to tens of micrometers. This fine powder retains the desirable properties of zircon sand, including high refractoriness and chemical inertness.

Zirconium flour is essential for the production of advanced ceramics, where it acts as a stabilizer to increase the mechanical strength and thermal resistance of ceramic materials. In addition, this material is an important component in the production of zirconium chemicals used in paper coatings, paint dryers, catalysts and cosmetics such as antiperspirants. Zirconium flour is also used in investment casting processes for precision casting of metal components.

Zircon 5 Micron is designed for efficient filtration and separation in a variety of industrial applications. These materials are designed to effectively remove fine particles from liquids or gases, providing reliable and consistent filtration performance.

Zircon sand is a naturally occurring mineral composed mainly of zirconium silicate (ZrSiO₄), known for its outstanding thermal stability, low thermal expansion, and excellent chemical inertness. It is widely used in precision casting, refractory manufacturing, ceramics, and glass industries.

Andalusite is a natural alumino-silicate mineral with exceptional refractory properties. When heated to ~1350°C, it transforms into mullite, forming a stable crystal structure with high thermal shock resistance and mechanical strength. This makes andalusite an excellent raw material for high-performance refractories and technical ceramics.

Potassium feldspar is a mineral raw material used in the ceramic, porcelain, glass and other industrial sectors. This group includes orthoclase and microcline feldspars, valued for their potassium oxide content and stable technological properties.

In ceramic production, potassium feldspar is used as a flux. It contributes to the formation of a glassy phase during firing, improves body sintering, increases the density of the ceramic body and helps produce items with high strength and stable geometry. The material is especially important in the production of ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware, porcelain and sanitary ceramics.

One of the key advantages of potassium feldspar is its ability to support high whiteness of the fired body and color stability in finished products. This is particularly important for manufacturers where appearance, shade, surface quality and batch-to-batch consistency are critical.

Applications

Potassium feldspar is widely used in the production of ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware, porcelain, sanitary ceramics, glazes and technical ceramics. It is used in formulations where firing temperature, sintering degree, color, whiteness and mechanical properties of the finished product need to be controlled.

Suitable for the Following Industries

• ceramic tile production;
• porcelain stoneware production;
• porcelain production;
• sanitary ceramics production;
• production of glazes and ceramic bodies;
• manufacturers requiring a stable potassium-rich flux.

Sodium feldspar, also known as albite feldspar, is a mineral raw material used in the ceramic, glass and other industrial sectors. Its main technological value is related to its sodium oxide content, which helps reduce the melting temperature of the batch, improve sintering and increase the strength of finished products.

In ceramic production, sodium feldspar is used as a flux. It contributes to the formation of a glassy phase during firing, improves the density of the ceramic body and helps achieve more stable physical and mechanical properties. The material is widely used in the production of ceramic tiles, sanitary ceramics, technical ceramics and other products where strength, structural uniformity and controlled firing behavior are important.

Advantages of Sodium Feldspar

• reduces the melting temperature of the raw material mixture;
• improves the sintering process of ceramic bodies;
• increases the mechanical strength of finished products;
• helps form a dense and uniform material structure;
• suitable for ceramic, glass and sanitary ceramic production;
• can be supplied with different chemical compositions and particle size distributions.

Applications

Sodium feldspar is used in the production of ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware, sanitary ceramics, glazes, glass and other materials where a stable mineral component with fluxing properties is required. It is especially important for manufacturers that need to control firing temperature, sintering degree, strength and the final appearance of finished products.

Suitable for the Following Industries

• ceramic tile and porcelain stoneware production;
• sanitary ceramics production;
• technical ceramics production;
• glass industry;
• production of glazes and ceramic bodies;
• manufacturers that require a stable flux for batch composition adjustment.

Dead Burned Magnesite (DBM) is a high-temperature calcined natural magnesite produced at temperatures above 1750°C.
