Effect of temperature and glass content on crystalline phases in porcelain sintered with recovered automotive glass [PDF]
In the pursuit of sustainable porcelain production, this research examines the potential of using recovered automotive glass as a substitute for traditional feldspar, specifically feldspar imported from Spain. Porcelain samples were sintered at different

Ice nucleation properties of K-feldspar polymorphs and plagioclase feldspars [PDF]
The relation between the mineralogical characteristics of size-selected feldspar particles from 50 to 800 nm and their ability to act as ice-nucleating particles (INPs) in the immersion mode is presented.

PETROGRAPHY AND MICROTEXTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF GRANODIORITE FROM WASIMI, SOUTHWESTERN NIGERIA [PDF]
Rock samples of granodiorite from Wasimi were studied in detail to determine the minerals, mineral associations and the different micro-texture present in order to unravel the processes that were involved during the cooling of the magma.

Not all feldspars are equal: a survey of ice nucleating properties across the feldspar group of minerals [PDF]
Mineral dust particles from wind-blown soils are known to act as effective ice nucleating particles in the atmosphere and are thought to play an important role in the glaciation of mixed phase clouds.

Disorder-enhanced luminescence kinetics in volcanic feldspars [PDF]
A granitic feldspar is well-ordered and has a stable thermoluminescence signal enabling its dating with high reliability. In contrast, a volcanic feldspar (sanidine) exhibits a slight cristallographic disorder and an anomalously fast fading of the ...

The crystallization of a tin-bearing granitoid suite: The Bushveld granites in the Zaaiplaats area, South Africa [PDF]
Alkali feldspars from the tin-bearing Bobbejaankop and Lease granites, and from the surrounding barren Main granite in the Zaaiplaats tin-field were studied by X-ray diffraction method. The temperatures and oxygen fugacities of the lowermost Main granite
