Quartz & Feldspar for Glass Manufacturing
EB TA supplies quartz and feldspar grades engineered for glass production processes where consistency, chemical stability, and controlled granulometry are essential. Our materials are processed through controlled physical enrichment—preserving mineral integrity while enabling reliable melting behavior and repeatable batch performance.
Why Mineral Consistency Matters in Glass
Glass manufacturing requires predictable melting behavior and stable chemistry. EB TA mineral solutions are designed to support controlled performance across industrial furnace and batch systems.
- Stable batch repeatability for continuous production
- Controlled impurity behavior (grade-dependent)
- Consistent particle morphology for feeding & blending
- Quality verification aligned with industrial standards
Particle Size Engineering for Glass Processes
We deliver quartz and feldspar across a broad particle size range, customized for batching, blending, and melt efficiency requirements.
| Granular Grades | Stable handling, controlled flow, consistent feeding |
|---|---|
| Powder Grades | Homogeneous dispersion, precision blending behavior |
| PSD Verification | Laser diffraction (e.g., Mastersizer) and sieve analysis |
Chemical Purity & Optical Performance
For many glass applications, low impurity behavior helps reduce undesirable coloration and supports stable optical characteristics (depending on target glass type).
- Low Fe₂O₃ and TiO₂ ranges (product/grade dependent)
- Chemical verification by XRF and ICP-OES
- Loss on Ignition (L.O.I.) monitoring for process control
- Batch traceability from mine to shipment

FAQ – Glass
Which EB TA minerals are used in glass manufacturing?
Quartz and feldspar are commonly used depending on glass type and batch formulation requirements.
Why is particle size (PSD) important for glass batches?
PSD impacts blending uniformity, feeding behavior and melt efficiency, especially in continuous operations.
Do you supply both granular and powdered grades?
Yes. EB TA offers granular and dry-ground powder grades depending on process needs.
How do you verify particle size distribution?
Through laser diffraction systems and sieve-based analysis, aligned with industrial quality control practices.
How is chemical composition controlled?
Each batch is analyzed using laboratory methods such as XRF and ICP-OES, supported by traceability documentation.
Can EB TA support low-impurity requirements?
Yes. Specific grades are characterized by low impurity behavior (grade-dependent) and verified analytically.
Do you apply chemical beneficiation?
No. EB TA focuses on controlled physical enrichment to preserve natural mineral integrity.
What packaging options are available for glass plants?
Craft bags, Big-Bags and silo truck supply are available based on logistics and plant intake systems.
Can you ensure supply repeatability over time?
Yes. EB TA maintains batch traceability, standardized processing and archived analysis for continuity.
