Product Introduction:
Bentonite is a clay rock, also known as montmorillonite clay rock, often containing a small amount ofIllite, Kaolin, Montmorillonite, ChloriteZeoliteQuartzFeldspar, calcite, etc.; usually white or pale yellow, varying to light gray, light green, pink, brown, brick red, and gray-black due to varying iron content; with waxy, earthy, or greasy luster; bentonite can be loose like soil or dense and hard. The main chemical components are silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, and water, with iron, magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, and other elements present. The content of Na2O and CaO significantly affects the physical and chemical properties as well as the technological performance of bentonite.
The properties of montmorillonite are greatly related to the types of cations exchanged between its layers. Depending on the types of primary exchangeable cations within the layers, montmorillonite is typically categorized as calcium montmorillonite and sodium montmorillonite.
Montmorillonite has adsorption and cation exchange properties, and can be used for removingEdible OilToxins removal, gasoline purification, wastewater treatment; due to its excellent water-absorbing expansion properties, dispersion, suspension, and slurry formation capabilities, it is therefore used forDrilling mudFlame-retardant (suspension extinguishing); also suitable for the paper industry.Filling MaterialAvailable for optimizationPaintsPerformance such as adhesion, hiding power, water resistance, and scrub resistance; due to its excellent bonding power, it can replace starch forTextile IndustryThe sizing of the yarns here is both grain-saving and lint-free, and it doesn't emit any unpleasant odors after sizing, truly a win-win situation.
Bentonite (montmorillonite), due to its excellent physical and chemical properties, can be used as a purification and decolorizing agent, binder,ThixotropeSuspension Agent, Stabilizer, FillerFeedCatalysts, etc., widely used inAgricultureLight industry andCosmeticsIn pharmaceuticals and other fields, therefore, montmorillonite is a versatile material.Natural MineralMaterials.
Bentonite can be used as waterproofing materials, such as bentonite waterproof mats, bentonite waterproof boards, and their matching materials, which are laid using mechanical fixation methods. Suitable for underground environments with a pH range of 4 to 10; in high-salinity environments, modified bentonite should be used, and it must pass quality inspections before use.
