More About Bentonite :
Bentonite is a clay mineral predominantly consisting of mineral Montmorillonite mixed with some related minerals like Nontronite and Beidellite. These are three layered Aluminosilicate with molecules of water between layers. For natural Sodium Bentonite, exchangeable sodium cations are predominant, rather than other cations like calcium, magnesium etc. Similarly in Calcium Bentonite, calcium cations are predominant. In fact in all Bentonite available in the world, the sodium variety has high swelling and gelling properties along with good viscosity and liquid limit.
The Bentonite found in the Kutch region of India is of igneous origin. It was formed millions of years ago, possibly from the volcanic ash falling in stagnant saline water in semi-arid conditions. Due to the natural characteristics of these particular volcanic ashes, the chemical composition of this Bentonite is somewhat different from the Bentonite available in the rest of the world. Most of these deposits are of natural sodium Bentonite with higher iron content which gives them their darker colour. Due to very fine particle size, this Bentonite shows extra-ordinary swelling capacity and bonding powers. These differences mean that the Bentonite finds the most number of uses in various industries throughout the world.
Applications:
- Foundry : Our product for foundry application is an unique blending of Sodium and Calcium based Bentonite. It is extraordinary solution for foundry sand binding and it can also withstand higher temperature since it contain more percentages of metallic i.e.: Alumina and Ferrous contain. It offers more superior thermal durability.
- Iron Ore Pelletising : Our product for Iron Ore pelletising is unique Sodium based Bentonite. It is an extraordinary solution for Iron Ore Pellet binding and it can also withstand higher temperature.
- Drilling Fluids : Well Drilling remains one of the largest volume market for Bentonite. The important characteristics of this type of Bentonite are Mud yield, Gel Strength and wall building properties. We also offer tailor made products upon request.
