Bentonite, For Decorative Items, Gift Items, Making Toys, Packaging Type : Plastic Bags, Poly Bags

Bentonite formed through devitrification (weathering) of vitreous volcanic ash. Bentonite is the commercial name of a whole range of natural clays with a high water absorption capacity causing it to expand and swell. Bentonite predominantly consists of montmorillonite: a clay mineral belonging to a class of phyllosilicates called smectites.
Bentonite apparent density, when quarried and piled under natural moisture conditions, ranges from 1.5 to 1.8 g/cm3. Its density when dry varies depending on the quality, and may range from 2.2 to 2.8 g/cm3. The apparent density of milled bentonite products varies depending on mill fineness, ranging from 0.7 to 0.9 g/cm3.
Bentonite is a Hydrated Aluminium Silicate and Mineralogical name of Bentonite is Montmorillonite
Chemical composition of Bentonite is : (Na,Ca)_0.33(AI,Mg)₂(Si₄O₁₀)(OH)₂.nH₂O.

Drilling Grade :

• Owing to its rheological properties and thixotropy of aqueous suspensions.
• bentonite is used as a mud constituent for oil and water well drilling.
• Its functions are mainly to stabilise the borehole, seal the borehole walls, and remove drill cuttings.
• Bentonite muds are thus employed for oil and water well drilling, tunnel, and microtunnel drilling.

Foundry Grade :

• Bentonite is used as a bonding material in the preparation of moulding sand for the production of cast iron, steel, and non-ferrous casting.
• The unique properties of bentonite yield green sand moulds with good flowability, compactability, and thermal stability for the production of high quality castings.
• Its functions are mainly to stabilise the borehole, seal the borehole walls, and remove drill cuttings.

Civil Engineering Grade & Pilling Grade :

• Bentonite slurries are used in the construction of special foundations for digging, diaphragm walls and bored piles.
• In geothecnical engineering, bentonite is used for self-hardening mixtures employed to build cut off walls, grouting mortars, and grouting.
• bentonite waterproofing properties are best exploited in environmental engineering, to seal off soil infiltrations, and line the base of landfills.

Animal Feedstuff and Cat Litter :

• Bentonite is used as an animal feed supplement.
• Bentonite is used as a pelletizing aid in the production of animal feed pellets.
• Due to its high adsorption power, it is particularly effective agains micotoxins.
• Owing to its swelling property, bentonite is used for cat litter, due to its advantage of absorbing refuse by forming clumps

Paper :

• Bentonite is used to improve the efficiency of conversion of pulp into paper, as well as for paper quality improvement by preventing rubber particle agglomeration.
• Due to its absorbing property, bentonite also offers useful de-inking properties for paper recycling

Details :

• In winemaking, bentonite is used to enhance clarification and protein stabilization.
• Bentonite is used as a filler in pharmaceuticals, and for its absorption/adsorption functions.
• It is also employed in creams, face-powders, and spa mud preparations.
• Bentonite is used in detergents to soften the fabrics. Liquid cleansers/soaps rely on the inclusion of bentonite as a suspension agent and viscosity enhancer.
  Bentonite functions as a thickening and/or suspension agent.
