Bentonite is a remarkable natural resource that plays a critical role in many industries. As industries continue to seek sustainable and effective materials, bentonite is poised to remain a key player in the global market. For customers looking for reliable, high-quality bentonite, our company offers tailored solutions that meet a wide range of needs. Introduction to Bentonite Bentonite is a highly versatile clay known for its unique properties, including swelling, viscosity, and adsorption. Formed from the weathering of volcanic ash, bentonite contains predominantly montmorillonite clay minerals. Its unique properties make it essential in various industries, ranging from oil drilling to health and beauty. Properties of Bentonite Bentonite's key properties stem from its mineralogical composition. It can absorb substantial amounts of water, which allows it to expand and form gel-like masses. This makes it extremely useful as a sealing agent, binder, and purification substrate. The typical elemental makeup includes high levels of silica and aluminum, with smaller amounts of calcium, magnesium, and iron, which confer its ability to bond and react with other substances. Bentonite Formula and Elemental Composition: Bentonite is primarily composed of montmorillonite, a type of clay mineral that belongs to the larger family of phyllosilicates. Montmorillonite itself can vary slightly in chemical composition, but generally, it can be represented by a simplified formula: Na,Ca0.33(Al,Mg)2(Si4O10)(OH)2nH2O. The elemental makeup of bentonite includes a mix of several primary elements which contribute to its properties: Silicon (Si, (Aluminum (Al), Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Sodium (Na), Oxygen (O) and Hydrogen (H). Mining and Production of Bentonite The mining of bentonite is a meticulous process that involves extracting material from open-pit mines. The extracted bentonite is then refined and processed into various grades, depending on its intended use. Major bentonite mining regions include the Western United States, Greece, and Australia, where mining techniques are designed to minimize environmental impact while maximizing yield. Applications of Bentonite Bentonite has a wide range of applications due to its versatile properties. It is used in drilling mud for oil and gas wells, as a binder in the foundry industry, in environmental applications such as landfill liners, and as a carrier in fertilizers. It also finds applications in personal care products, due to its absorbent and viscosity-modifying properties.
Applications: Drilling Earthing Cattlitter Bleaching
Quartz: Quartz is one of the most well-known minerals on the earth with numerous uses. Sand, which is composed of tiny Quartz pebbles, is the primary ingredient for the manufacture of glass. We feel pride in introducing ourselves as a leading Quartz Lumps Exporters from India. Mineral-grade packaging is provided for safe and easy delivery of Quartz Lumps. We welcome orders from Middle East, East Asian and several other countries and ensure timely shipment. Applications : It is used as an abrasive for sandblasting, grinding glass and cutting of soft stones. Quartz powder is also used in ceramic tiles along with feldspar.
Quartz Grits Grade A & B Color: Milky & Glossy white and off white Available almost all sizes
Potassium feldspar, also known as K-Feldspar, is a common type of feldspar mineral that is composed of potassium, aluminium, and silica. It is one of the most abundant minerals in the Earth's crust and is found in many types of rocks, including granite, gneiss, and pegmatite, that has a wide range of industrial and scientific applications. Its unique properties make it a valuable resource in a variety of fields, from manufacturing to geology. For example, it is a key ingredient in the manufacture of glass and ceramics, where it is used as a flux to lower the melting point of the materials. It is also used as filler in plastics, rubber, and other materials. We, SRS Minerals are equipped to supply Good quality K-Feldspar, with Potassium content up to 12% in Lumps from 1-300mm size, and in powder form, if required.
We are supplier and exporter of Bentonite. Bentonite for Drilling mud and Civil engineering Shape:white powder and natural particles The products is suitable for the lubrication of drilling engineering,bridge, construction engineering pile foundation,diaphragm wall,subway,tunnel,wall mud and impervious materials such as underground engineering,reservoir dam foundation,etc.
Bentonite as is a particular kind of clay derived from volcanic ash and consists mainly of montmorillonite with minor amount of illite, kaolinite, cristobalite and other minerals. Bentonite has strong colloidal properties and, when in contact with water, increases its volume several fold by swelling, forming a tixotropic, gelatinous substance. Main uses of Bentonite take advantage of these colloidal properties. The main characteristics of Bentonite is its decolorizing power, that is the property of the earth to absorb selectively certain pigments rather than others according to the characteristics of the product to be decolourized(acidity, oxidation degree, origin and biological state etc.) APPLICATIONS For Drilling Fluids Pilling Binder (e.g. foundry-sand bond, iron ore pelletizer) Purifier Electrical Earthing Agriculture Cosmetics, Paper, Paints and Ceramics Absorbent (e.g. pet litter), and As a Groundwater Barrier. We CEMENTATION acquire own mines for Bentonite in India. We supply Bentonite for industrial, manufacturing, construction and drilling applications. Our production or supply capacity is more than 250,000 TPA. At CEMENTATION a special attention is given while mining Bentonite as the materials physical and chemical properties are depended upon the interference of the other metal ions present in the soil. Once the material sourced from mines are transferred to our factory and are left for drying in an open land to reduce moisture up to the desired level. After the drying process and other checks are done our skilled manpower will do a sorting of the material and then after the material goes to pulverizes for grinding to desired mesh size and are packed according to customers requirement. Our laboratories are well equipped to meet the needs of the diverse markets we serve.
