Bentonite: The Versatile Mineral for Industrial Applications
Bentonite is a naturally occurring clay mineral known for its exceptional absorbent properties, swelling capacity, and ability to form a gel-like consistency when mixed with water. Its unique properties make it a crucial component in various industries, including construction, drilling, agriculture, and cosmetics.
Key Features of Bentonite
- High Swelling Capacity: Absorbs water rapidly, expanding multiple times its volume.
- Superior Binding Properties: Ideal for molding and pelletizing applications.
- Thermal Stability: Performs well under high-temperature conditions.
- Chemical Resistance: Resistant to chemicals, making it versatile for industrial use.
- Eco-Friendly: A natural and reusable material.
