natural fuller earthis also calledground clayit is thegreen clayorbentoniteand is mostly used for body detoxification and cleansing. Green clay is considered to be the most versatile remedy nature provides. Activated clay is commonly used to remove surfactants and additives from jet fuel, kerosene, diesel and other fuel oils. It also removes products of oxidation and acids from hydraulic and lubes oils. Bulk fuller's earth for acid removal and surfactant removal in refineries, transformer repair shops, and other industries.

it is used as a bleaching agent, as an adsorbent in decolorizing and used for refining oils and fats. Fuller's earth is a mineral substance characterized by the property of absorbing basic colours and removing them from oils. In general bleaching earth is a decolorizing agent which will change the tint of any coloured oil to a lighter shade by changing the basic colour units in oil, without altering the chemical properties of the oil.

usage of bentonite:-

• granular fuller's earth is used to improve uv spectrometer readings and pnc values of petroleum base oil distillates.

• medicine: fuller's earth is used (with activated charcoal) in the treatment ofparaquatpoisoning to prevent the progression topulmonary fibrosis.

• cat litter
• cosmetic creams and face packs.

• aggricultural pesticide carriers.
• manufacture of various catalysts used in the petroleum and chemical industries.

sodium feldspar occurs as essential constituents of granite, syenite and gneisses. However, workable deposits are found in pegmatite veins consisting mainly of feldspar, quartz-feldspar veins and also occur with mica pegmatites. Feldspar is of widespread occurrence and is mined in almost all countries. Feldspars are aluminosilicates. Their fusibility and purity make them a useful raw material with many industrial applications.

we supply sodium feldspar mainly in forms of lumps, grains/chips and powder.

characteristics:-

• excellent chemical properties
• negligible iron content
• high content of potash
• great whiteness
• unmatched quality consistency
• good alumina and alkali content
• high fusiblity

applications:-

ceramic industry:-

in making the body composition of several types of wall tiles, floor tiles, porcelain tiles, sanitary ware, china & earthenware and also in the preparation of glazes and enamel.

for ceramic bodies, the main vitrifying (fluxing) agent is feldspar. The majority of white ware bodies contain good proportions of feldspar. In the ceramic industry, the flux is defined as the portion of the body which develops glass phase. This is provided mostly by feldspar. The amount of flux in a ceramic body should be only in such a proportion as to develop the desired amount of vitrification. If excess of flux is added, the fired body becomes very glassy and consequently brittle.

for glaze preparations:-

in the preparation of glazes the fine powder of feldspar is mixed with silica powder and a thin slurry is made. The fired up goods are dipped into the slurry and fired again. This imparts glaze to the surface. Some other ingredients are also added to the slurry to impart glaze and lustre. Each pottery factory has its own technique of preparing slurry which is regarded as a trade secret. Fusiblity is very important. The glazes high in feldspar (35% or more) are likely to produce crazing problems. 'flux saturated' glazes with more than 50% feldspar may be unbalanced and lack adequate glass former or alumina. The high melting point is 1250c with m specific.

sodium used in for glaze preparations:-

sodium feldspar is generally a clean white mineral which sources sodium, alumina and silica along with some potassium and calcium. Albite mineral from which sodium feldspar is derived is often tends to be white in appearance compared with the pinkish hue of orthoclase mineral from which potash feldspar is ground. It begins melting around 800c.

in many cases sodium feldspar and potash feldspar are interchangeable in glaze recipes. However, some differences will be apparent. For example, slightly different color responses will be encountered (i.e. Cobalt tends toward purple copper toward blue with soda spar). Sometimes colors will be brighter with sodium feldspar. In addition, sodium spar has a higher coefficient of expansion and melts earlier and has a shorter range before it begins to volatilize.

sodium feldspar is a clean white mineral with a melting range of 1100-1500c. Sodium and potash feldspar are interchangeable in glaze recipes but there are some differences between them. Sodium feldspar melts better than the potash feldspar. Sodium feldspar has a higher coefficient than the potash. Sodium feldspar is a volatile substance and has excellent moisture absorbent capacity due to which this compound melts when it comes in contact with the atmosphere.

glass industry:-

in glass-making, it provides aluminium that enhances the strength and transparency of hollow glass, flat glass, decorative glass and insulating glass. In the glass industry also, potassium feldspar is used in varying proportions. It may contain 10 to 15% of the batch. The alkali content in feldspar acts as flux, provides resistance in glass to impact bandings, lowering the glass batch melting temperature and helps control the viscosity in the melting tank thus reducing production costs.

feldspar plays a vital role in glass making industries as it is used to ensure durability of the glass with extended hardness and chemical corrosion resistance.

in the manufacturing of high-class and colourless glass, feldspar should have a maximum of 0.1% fe2o3though upto 0.3% is permissible.

other applications:-

• as fillers in paints, plastics, adhesives, sealants, rubber and insulation etc.
• port land cement industry
• furnace manufacturing & consultants
• fertilizer & petrochemical industries
• foundries
• geo polymers
• other uses of sodium feldspar include catalysts, acid resistant and decorative stone as a flux or binding agent in certain scanning soaps and artificial teeth.

Granulated Blast Furnace Slag or GBFS is formed when Blast Furnace Slag or BFS is successively at a fast rate quenched from the furnace rather than left for cooling. It has a density of about 60% to 70% that of natural sand. This material has a much increased resistance to sulfate attack. This eventually leads to better performance in countering acids of any type. In GBFS, no type of reaction related to alkali and silica occurs. Also the material provides a huge saving in connection to carbon dioxide emission which is an extra boon. What constitutes GBFS are its properties that consist of durability, appearance, higher ultimate strength than concrete which is made up of Portland cement and high sustainability level of the product made out of this material.

Also the pozzolanic properties tend to turn it into a solid block. Granulated Blast Furnace Slag is an essential material for grit-blasting procedures. In field like road construction and cement manufacturing, GBFS has typical usage and is widely renowned for it.

Fly ash, also known as flue-ash is a residue which is generated during combustion and consists of fine particles. There are impurities in coal which mostly consist of clays, limestone and dolomite particles. These turn up into ash as they cannot be completely burned.

Fly ash is useful in a number of ways and is one of the most researched upon mineral source. It is mainly a pozzolanic substance which contains aluminum and silicon material which in return due to the presence of water can take form of cement.

A lot of research and development initiative have been taken place across the globe to build and develop technologies that can utilize the full potential of fly ash. Royal Mineral takes care to ensure flawless production stages.

Fly ash can be used in cement, tiles and blocks among others. Other applications of fly ash include being used as an admixture, cold weather resistance products, reduces crack problems and as a substitute for Portland cement which can be made by mixing Fly ash, water and lime together.

• The process requires fly ash that consists of impurities to be mixed in suitable proportion with either lime or gypsum. Then these are added to form a uniform mixture. Even cement can be used instead of lime and gypsum. Water is added into the mixture and after it is dried, the mixture is transferred into a molding furnace.
• Here either the working takes place hydraulically or compacted through pressure. Now what concludes is the required fly ash being turned into concrete and used in other applications. In addition, there are times when lime might not be available as it could be that its cost is way too high, therefore cement acts as a fine alternative and used instead of it. In addition, it is easily available and costs way too low as compared to lime.

Ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS or GGBS) is obtained by quenching molten iron slag (a by-product of iron and steel-making) from a blast furnace in water or steam, to produce a glassy, granular product that is then dried and ground into a fine powder.

The main components of blast furnace slag are CaO, SiO2, Al2O3 and MgO.

GGBFS is used to make durable concrete structures in combination with ordinary portland cement and/or other pozzolanic materials.Use of GGBFS significantly reduces the risk of damages caused by alkalisilica reaction (ASR), provides higher resistance to chloride ingress reducing the risk of reinforcement corrosion and provides higher resistance to attacks by sulfate and other chemicals.

Laterite is a polymetallic ore and it is rich in iron oxide. It is formed from a variety of rocks that undergo stray oxidizing and leaching conditions. Laterite is typical clay like material and porous. The colors of Laterite vary from red, reddish-black, brown, yellow and blackish-brown. Laterite also in short can be called as a rock product that is formed in response to a set of physiochemical conditions. It has a number of uses in industries nowadays.
