Kaolin uses are multiple and
diverse. Kaolin are used as functional filler, extender, ceramic raw
material and pigment because of its whiteness and fine particle size.
Kaolin also hold importance as raw material in refractory applications,
concrete, rubber and fiber glass manufacturing. We, as a Kaolin Exporter
welcome any size of international orders from Middle East and other
countries.
Applications
- Paper : Kaolin used as a coating pigment and as a filler to replace fiber. It possesses desirable optical properties.
- Concrete : Kaolin
helps to improve strength and durability of concrete. When added to
concrete mix, reacts with free lime released during cement hydration to
produce additional cementitious material, resulting in an improved high
performance concrete.
- Plastics : Kaolin is widely used as
filler in the plastics industry because of its inert chemical nature
and its unique size, shape and structure.
- Agriculture : It
is used as a carrier and diluent in fertilizers, pesticides and related
products. It is suitable as carrier because it aides the retention of
the formulations on the plant.
- Rubber : It is commonly
used as functional filler in rubber applications. While Kaolin improves
overall performance for Rubber in general, different types of white
pigment play specific roles in rubber application.
- Paint : Kaolin
used as an extender in paints. It reduces the amount of expensive
pigment such as Titanium Dioxide. It assists with desirable rheological
properties that help maintain proper dispersion and provide bulk to the
product.
- Ceramic : Kaolin improves whiteness and
brightness of ceramic body. Good plasticity, good shrinkage, low water
absorption and casting rate are also very important properties of
kaolin.
