Padparadscha and Sunstone Physical Properties

Padparadscha and Sunstone Chemical Formula

While comparing Padparadscha and Sunstone physical properties, the important data you should know is its chemical composition. Since chemical formula defines the molecular structure of the crystal, most of the physical properties like color, tenacity, solubility are governed by Padparadscha and Sunstone chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Padparadscha- Al 2O 3Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
• Chemical formula of Sunstone- Microcline: KAlSi₃O₈ Oligoclase: (Na,Ca)Al_1-2Si_3-2O₈

Padparadscha and Sunstone Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Padparadscha and Sunstone Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Padparadscha and Sunstone Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Padparadscha is 2.62-2.65 whereas that of Sunstone is 2.62-2.65.
