As one of the most important minerals in geology, feldspar might enter the deep interior of the Earth via slab subduction process. Consequently, its phase relations and physical-chemical behaviors at high pressures could be very significant to the geodynamic process of the Earth’s interior. In this paper, the authors summarized in some phase diagrams all known high pressure-high temperature experimental data about feldspars with various compositions. These phase diagrams evident that a full picture about feldspar at high pressure is still unavailable, so that further high-pressure experimentation is necessary. Additionally, the authors briefly reviewed the available physical properties of the high-pressure phases derived from the feldspar compositions, and integrated them into pressure-density profiles which were subsequently compared to the pressure-density profile of pyrolite.
