Potassium Feldspar Powder from Japan
Potassium feldspar powder, also known as orthoclase, is a naturally occurring rock-forming mineral that is mined and ground into a fine powder for use as a flux in ceramic glazes and porcelain production. The grinding is a mechanical process that does not alter the mineral's chemical structure, and the product is not mixed with other materials. This makes it classifiable as feldspar under tariff item 2529.10.00.
