Dolomite fertilizer
Dolomite is used as an ornamental stone, a concrete aggregate, and a source of magnesium oxide, as well as in the Pidgeon process for the production of magnesium. It is an important petroleum reservoir rock, and serves as the host rock for large strata-bound Mississippi Valley-Type (MVT) ore deposits of base metals such as lead, zinc, and copper. Where calcite limestone is uncommon or too costly, dolomite is sometimes used in its place as a flux for the smelting of iron and steel. Large quantities of processed dolomite are used in the production of float glass.
In horticulture, dolomite and dolomitic limestone are added to soils and soilless potting mixes as a pH buffer and as a magnesium source.
Dolomite is also used as the substrate in marine (saltwater) aquariums to help buffer changes in the pH of the water.
Calcined dolomite is also used as a catalyst for destruction of tar in the gasification of biomass at high temperature. Particle physics researchers like to build particle detectors under layers of dolomite to enable the detectors to detect the highest possible number of exotic particles. Because dolomite contains relatively minor quantities of radioactive materials, it can insulate against interference from cosmic rays without adding to background radiation levels.
We are supplier and exporter of Dolomite. We provide all types of Dolomite "Crushed, Powder or Bulk" Product - Dolomite Ore Specification MGO: 20% min Caco3: 32% min Al2o3: 0.04% Fe2o3: 0.02% Shipping mode - Containerized or Bulk Packing olomite powder is an anhydrous carbonate mineral which comprises calcium magnesium carbonate. It finds its use widely in Plastic, in PVC footwear, PVC Pipes, cables and others. One of the most widely used Mineral Fillers in the Plastics and Polymer industry, and its use in rigid packaging has increased significantly over the years due to its low cost and abundance availability.
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.
Dolomite mineral is a double carbonate of calcium and magnesium and it exhibits a granular structure. It has high natural whiteness and it's noted for their ease of dispersion. Its use improves properties such as weather ability, reduces shrinkage, fissure development and water absorption. Natural Dolomite Powder is of White Colour and is used as Filler in many applications such as Soap & Detergent, Paints, Ceramics and many other Industries.
