Kaolin application
1, kaolin industrial use
Kaolin has become a paper, ceramics, rubber, chemicals, coatings, medicine and national defense, and dozens of other industries essential mineral raw materials.
Ceramic industry is the first application of kaolin, a large amount of industry. The general dosage is 30% ~ 20% of the formula. Kaolin in ceramic effect is the introduction of Al2O3, is conducive to the formation of mullite, to improve its chemical stability and strength of sinter, in firing kaolin soil derived from the decomposition of mullite, forming the main frame of the strength of the green compacts, can prevent the products from deformation, firing in a wider temperature range, also can make the green body with certain whiteness. At the same time, kaolin has certain plasticity, adhesive, suspension and ability to bind endowed with porcelain clay, glaze good formability, make ceramic mud blank to billet car and grouting, easy to shape. If used in the wire, can increase the insulation, reduce the dielectric loss. Ceramic not only on kaolin clay plasticity, binding, drying shrinkage, dry strength, sintering shrinkage, sintering properties, refractoriness and burn whiteness have strict requirements, but also relates to the chemical properties, especially the presence of color elements caused by iron, titanium, copper, chromium, manganese and other, to burn after the brightness decreases, produce spots. Of kaolin particle size is smaller, the better, the porcelain clay has good plasticity and dry strength, but the rapid casting, accelerate the grouting speed and the dehydration rate of the casting process, the need to improve the batching particle size. In addition, kaolinite crystallization degree of difference, will also significantly affect the process performance of the porcelain, crystallization degree, plasticity, binding capacity is low, drying shrinkage of small, high sintering temperature, the impurity content also reduced; on the contrary, the plasticity is high, dry shrinkage of large, low sintering temperature, corresponding impurity content is also high.
2, kaolin in the field of cosmetics applications
Kaolin is also known as the white porcelain, is a kind of clay mineral, usually white. In beauty, kaolin is usually used on the mask, it can absorb the oil and waste of the skin, clean the skin to remove dirt, and the town of Jingan to ask the fragile skin. The loss of water and nutrients from the mineral supplement in natural mud, balance oil secretion, make the skin more smooth, more flexible.
Kaolin: 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.
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.

China clay is characterized by its fine particle size, high brightness and rheology.We develop fine and ultra fine grades of Hydrous Kaolin from our best reserves, for various industries including Paint, Paper, Printing Inks, Paper board, Rubber etc. China clay is a natural mineral found in partly decompo-sed granite, an igneous feldsparic rock. Chemically, kaolin is a hydrated aluminium silicate containing Al2O3.2SiO2.2H2O. Kaolin was first discovered in the mountainous province of Kiangsi, China in A.D. 500. The word kaolin derives from the Chinese character kaolin which means high ridge. It was first used by the Chinese to make high quality porcelain.
