Limestone Bentonite Kaolin Calcite Dolomite Suppliers and Manufacturers

Dolomite is a carbonate mineral, including ankerite and manganese dolomite. Its crystal structure is like calcite and is often rhombohedral. It will bubble slowly when exposed to cold dilute hydrochloric acid. Some dolomite emits orange light under cathode ray irradiation. Dolomite is the main mineral composition of dolomite and dolomitic limestone. Dolomite can be used in building materials, ceramics, glass and refractory materials, chemical industry, agriculture, environmental protection, energy conservation and other fields. It is mainly used as flux for basic refractory and blast furnace ironmaking. Production of calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer and preparation of magnesium sulfate; As well as ingredients for producing glass and ceramics.

Dolomite powder is used as a raw material for the production of high-grade glassware, medicine bottles and optical glass. Dolomite powder has limited dosage in paints, confined to be used as filler, mainly playing the role of white pigment. However, due to the coarse particles, refractive index and paint solvent similar to the covering power is weak, there is no certain special role in the application, just for the body pigment filler paint.- Used in the building materials and refractory materials, chemical and agricultural, environmental protection, energy conservation and other fields. - Used in the production of glass and ceramic ingredients; - Used as refractory inner layer, slag making agent, cement raw material, glass flux, kiln industry, building and decoration stone material, paint;

Kaolin also called as China Clay is nearly white in colour. It is distinguished from other industrial clays based on its fine particle size and pure colourings. Its ability to disperse in water makes it an ideal pigment. The primary constituent in kaolin is the mineral kaolinite, a hydrous aluminum silicate formed by the decomposition of minerals such as feldspar. Hydrous kaolin is characterized by its fine particle size, plate like or lamellar particle shape and chemical inertness.

Dolomite is a mineral that is usually found in dolostone deposits, which are sedimentary rocks. Its applications are driven by the intrinsic distinctions between dolomite and calcite It is a versatile mineral that is used across several industries such as construction, agriculture, ceramics, pharmaceuticals, paints, plastics, rubber and refractories to mention a few. The physical properties of dolomite are its soft to medium hardness with a value of 3 and 4 on the Mohs scale and the pearly luster. Dolomite is used as a source of magnesium in ceramic, glass, cement and pharmaceutical sectors. In the Iron and steel industries, dolomite is massively used because of its strength and compatibility in purifying iron and steel. For construction and building materials, it is used as a substitute for lime. Sodium triphosphate (STP), also sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), or tripolyphosphate (TPP), is an inorganic compound with formula Na5P3O10. The burnt dolomite is used in refractories, as a sintering agent in the palletization of iron ore and as a flux agent in the production of steel. Paints, plastics, rubber, soaps, and detergents sectors use it as filler in their manufacturing processes. Farmers use dolomite to adjust the pH of their crops. It is also used in the chemical industry to make magnesium salts such as magnesia and magnesium oxide (MgO), which is further utilised in pharmaceuticals. The distinguishing characteristics of our natural dolomite are: High purity grade along with whiteness. Our Dolomite has high compressive and shear strength. It also has the wet ability and fire-resistant. The strength of our mineral dolomite is its long life and rigidity. The structure of dolomite is like that of calcite, except every other cation layer contains magnesium ions instead of calcium ions. But, if we compare dolomite to calcite, its usage will be less prevalent within the industries. This is because of the lack of brightness in the dolomite mineral. We provide cutting-edge and high grade dolomite minerals that can be used in a variety of applications. In order to meet all diverse demands, we can add additional refining operations to our standard dolomite mineral production to suit the bespoke requirements of various sectors and industries.

Kaolinite is the mineral that is derived from the rock called â??Kaolinâ?? and from there, it gets its name. It is also commonly known as â??China Clayâ??. Kaolin is mined from the regions of Gujarat, Rajasthan, Kerala, West Bengal and Jharkhand in India The physical properties of Kaolin include high brightness, non-abrasiveness, poor conductivity of heat and electricity and it has naturally fine particles. Kaolin remains white after calcination due to its refractory properties and can be easily dispersed in water. There are several variations within Kaolin such as Hydrous Kaolin, Metakaolin and Calcined Kaolin. We offer a vast range of Kaolin-based minerals to several businesses from paper manufacturing to porcelain tableware, paints, cosmetics, packaging, rubber and pharmaceuticals to name a few. We customize our minerals according to the needs of the industry of our clients. Hydrous Kaolin has fine particles with plate-like shapes and inertness in terms of chemical reactivity, whereas, Metakaolin is created by the process of calcination of Kaolin. It is a white mineral additive which is most popularly used in cement-based products. In contrast to this, Calcined Kaolin is manufactured by heating the finest natural kaolin to high temperatures in a kiln. This calcination process changes the size and shape of the particles, enhances the whiteness and hardness of the mineral and improves its electrical conductivity. Kaolinite is a clay mineral, with the chemical composition Alâ??Siâ??Oâ??(OH)â?? Various Industrial Usages: Kaolin is a very important mineral in the ceramics industry. Itâ??s high fusion temperature and white firing characteristic makes it perfect to be used in the manufacture of sanitaryware, tableware, floors & tiles and refractories. In the construction industry, kaolin is used to enhance the mechanical properties, porosity and look of several types of cement and concrete. It is also an impeccable source of alumina source in the manufacturing of fiberglass. Kaolin is used in paper manufacturing and fiber-based packaging also. Our Kaolin mineral enhances surface functionality when it is used as fillers or coating pigments and thus further helping in reducing the manufacturing cost of the paper or the packaging. Moreover, it is extensively used in decorative paints formulations as it is a natural opacifier and it is the perfect mineral when high gloss is required. Our specialized Kaolin also can be used as multi-purpose fillers to improve the performance of adhesives, plastics and rubber. We are extremely confident in our offering of Kaolin mineral as we understand how Kaolin can optimize the performance, reduce the costs and can achieve minimum carbon footprint in our clientâ??s end products
