BENTONITE
Absorbent Clay Mineral for Drilling, Foundry & Industrial Applications
Bentonite is an absorbent clay mineral mainly composed of montmorillonite. It is known for its swelling, binding, adsorption and rheological properties, making it useful in many industrial applications.
Vision Minetech supplies different grades of Bentonite from Kutch, Gujarat for drilling, foundry, steelmaking, civil engineering, purification, cat litter and other binding applications.
Strong Absorption Property
Useful in applications where moisture absorption, swelling and binding performance are required.
Industrial Grade Supply
Suitable for drilling mud, foundry moulding sand, civil engineering and purification use.
Application-Based Grades
Grades can be selected as per swelling, viscosity, moisture, particle size and industry requirement.
Key Properties of Bentonite
Bentonite is valued because of its ability to absorb water, swell and create stable suspension or binding performance. These properties make it useful in drilling, foundry, sealing, grouting and absorbent applications.
Different applications require different Bentonite properties. Drilling industries focus on viscosity and suspension performance, foundry industries need bonding strength, while civil engineering applications need sealing and swelling behaviour.
Swelling Ability
Bentonite expands when mixed with water, making it suitable for sealing and slurry applications.
Binding Strength
Used as a bonding material in foundry moulding sand and iron ore pelletizing.
Adsorption & Purification
Useful in purification, decolorizing and absorbent industrial applications.
