Clients can avail highest grade Vermiculite from us at the market leading prices. The Vermiculite offered by us is broadly classified into Crude Vermiculite and Exfoliated Vermiculite.  A hydrous silicate mineral, Vermiculite falls under the category of phyllosilicate. Exfoliated vermiculite is the expanded form of the mineral when it is heated. Hydrothermal alteration and weathering of Biotite or phlogopite form this mineral. Vermiculite has a wide usage for animal feedstuffs, bitumen coated vermiculite screeds, chemically processed vermiculite, fire protection, friction linings, horticulture, etc. Clients can avail premium quality Vermiculite from us as per the specific requirements at best prices.

Applications of Vermiculite

• Light weight Concretes
• Insulation in Steelworks and Foundries
• Packing Materials
• Loft Insulation
• Refractory Products
• Processed Vermiculite
• Vermiculite Plasters
• Silicate Bonded Shapes and Blocks

Packing : Highly Absorbent Cushioning with Environmentally Safe Vermiculite
Vermiculite is widely used as a loose fill packaging material. It pours easily around irregular shaped objects and acts as a cushion against impact, shock and rough handling. Light weight, absorbent, nonabrasive, vermiculite packing material is ideal for shipping hazardous waste, flammable liquids and industrial products, especially when leakage could occur. Being inorganic, vermiculite is fireproof. It is also a highly absorbent loose fill material and can safely retain leaks from packed materials. Vermiculite is UN approved for use in transporting hazardous liquids and materials.

High insulation yet light weight

• Absorbent
• Fireproof
• UN approved

We are a reputed Manufacturer, Exporter & Supplier of Feldspar Lumps. The Feldspar Lumps offered by us are clusters of rock that form tectosilicate mineral. Feldspar is found in several metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. Depending at the predominant alkali metal element (the flux), Feldspar Lumps are divided into potash (potassium) or soda (sodium) feldspars. Feldspar Lumps are the naturally occurring minerals that are commonly used in making clay bodies and glazes. The purpose of using Feldspar Lumps is to provide fluxes to the formulations as well as to add extra alumina (Al₂O₃) and silica (SiO₂). Lithium feldspars are the aluminosilicates that contain lithium as the fluxing element. Our company specializes in offering White Feldspar, Common Feldspar Rock, etc., to the clients at competitive prices.

Industrial Applications

• Glass : Feldspar is an important ingredient in the manufacture of glass and an important raw material as well, because it acts as a fluxing agent, reducing the melting temperature of quartz and helping to control the viscosity of glass. The alkali content in feldspar acts as flux, lowering the glass batch melting temperature and thus reducing production costs.
  Ceramics : In the manufacture of ceramics, feldspar is the second most important ingredient after clay. Feldspar does not have a strict melting point, since it melts gradually over a range of temperatures. This greatly facilitates the melting of quartz and clays and, through appropriate mixing, allows modulations of this important step of ceramic making. Feldspars are used as fluxing agents to form a glassy phase at low temperatures and as a source of alkalies and alumina in glazes. They improve the strength, toughness, and durability of the ceramic body, and cement the crystalline phase of other ingredients, softening, melting and wetting other batch constituents.
• Fillers : Feldspars also are used as fillers and extenders in applications such as paints, plastics and rubber. Beneficial properties of feldspars include good dispersability, high chemical inertness, stable pH, high resistance to abrasion, low viscosity at high filler loading, interesting refractive index and resistance to frosting. The products used in such applications are generally fine-milled grades.
• Enamel frits and glazes : Feldspar assists the enamel composition, assuring the absence of defects and the neatness of the end product: e.g. enamel frits, ceramic glazes, ceramic tile glazes, sanitaryware, tableware, electrical porcelain and giftware.
• And many other end-uses : paint, mild abrasives, urethane, welding electrodes (production of steel), latex foam, the welding of rod coating, and road aggregate.

We are a highly acclaimed name that offers premium grade Mica to the clients. Mica is a clear, lustrous and sparky looking rock. Our range of Mica includes Green Mica Blocks, Muscovite Mica and Phlogopite Mica. Mica is used on a large scale in the electrical industry owing to its exceptional chemical, physical, and thermal properties. Also, the Mica offered by us is attributed with excellent dielectric strength, low power loss factor and good dielectric constant. Clients can avail from us best quality Mica as per their requirements at very affordable prices.

Mica GroupThe most common of the Mica Group minerals, it is typically found as massively crystalline material in "books" or in flaky grains as a constituent of many rock types. It is clear with a pearly luster on cleavage faces, often having a sparkly look in rocks.
It can form a continuous series with celadonite and aluminoceladonite; intermediates are known as the variety phengite and K-deficient variants as illite

The irregular lumps of Mica are termed as Mica Scrap. The Mica Scrap offered by us has the area ranging between 1/2" and 1 1/2" sq. Mica Scrap is used in massive industrial plants for making mica paper, mica boards as well as reconstituted mica plates. Also, mica flakes and powder is manufactured using Mica Scrap. Clients can avail premium quality up crushed or uncrushed Mica Scrap from us in the required specifications at competitive prices.

Different Origin of Mica Scrap

• Mica Scrap Grade A : White mica scrap is generally found in Bihar region in mines like Bhana & Chatkari. White Mica is best suitable for the production of good quality Mica Paper & Board. Its Shine & Color makes it apt for the production of Paper & Board. White Mica Scrap is a specialty of Bihar/Jharkhand.
• Black Mica Scrap : We also manufacture black mica scarp in different sizes from ½ inch to 4 inch
• Mixed Mica Scrap : This is grade B Mica Scrap. It has various grades and qualities scrap mixed in it
• Green Mica Scrap : It is also used to manufacture Mica paper and Mica Board and can be used in flooring and also decorative purpose
• Green Mica Scrap Grade B : We also supply grade b green mica scrap.

Quartz is basically silica, or silicon dioxide (SiO₂) found in the igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks present in the crust of the Earth. Quartz is a lustrous, glass like and hard mineral.
