Bentonite

Bentonite swells strongly on contact with water and has good colloidal properties, which can increase the viscosity of a suspension. When used in drilling fluid, it can increase drilling lubricity and remove cuttings generated during drilling. It can be widely used in drilling complex structural layers, avoiding drilling problems. Good hydration, strong water swelling, large cation exchange capacity, high drilling fluid performance and other excellent properties.

Bentonite is a versatile clay mineral with many unique properties that make it an indispensable material in various industries.

It is composed primarily of montmorillonite, a type of clay mineral that has a large surface area and the ability to absorb large amounts of water. This property makes bentonite an excellent adsorbent, which means it can attract and retain molecules of other substances such as heavy metals, organic compounds and bacteria. This makes it a popular ingredient in products used for environmental remediation and wastewater treatment.

In the mining industry, it is used as a binder in metal ore granulation, which involves mixing finely ground ore with other materials to form small balls that can be fired in a kiln. Bentonite acts as a binder to hold the iron particles together, which helps prevent the granules from breaking apart during the heating process.
