What is bentonite?

BENTONITE:

  • Bentonite is an absorbent aluminium phyllosilicate clay consisting mostly of montmorillonite. Sodium type of bentonite is considered as a higher quality product.


KEY PROPERTIES:

  • Swelling capacity (ability to absorb water);
  • Adsorption properties (ability to absorb substance from liquid);

  • Colloidal properties (ability of bentonite to be suspended throughout another substance).
    These properties make it a valuable material for a wide range of applications. 

MAIN USES OF BENTONITE:

Drilling fluids

Metallurgy

Civil engineering and hydroizolation

Cat litter

Agriculture (as an additive to feed and fertilizers)

Oil refining

Chemical industry (as a catalyst)

Additive to concrete and cement

Textile and pulp industry

Production of perfumes, cosmetics and household chemicals

Winemaking and production of soft drinks

Food industry (as an additive E558)
