Overview
This case presents laboratory fired-cake records for two feldspar samples tested by FOSHAN POWTECH / PTMS: one at 80 mesh and one at 200 mesh. Each sample was recorded as received (raw), after a first pass through a magnet, and after a second pass. Dry whiteness, wet whiteness and shrinkage were measured on cakes fired at 1200°C. Values are shown exactly as recorded.
These are laboratory fired-cake records, not third-party chemical assays. Each sample's results should be read only against its own raw, first-pass and second-pass values. The original records do not specify the equipment or process conditions.
Test results
The tables below list dry whiteness, wet whiteness and shrinkage, exactly as recorded. Empty fields in the original records are omitted and have not been estimated.

Notes on the results
These figures are laboratory fired-cake records (1200°C), not third-party chemical assays. They are for reference only and are subject to a laboratory test on the customer's own sample.
