Calcium Bentonite Powder
MOQ 28 Ton · Seller will confirm final rate
Calcium Bentonite Powder is a naturally occurring, highly absorbent montmorillonite clay mineral processed to achieve high purity and consistent quality. Unlike Sodium Bentonite, Calcium Bentonite is a non-swelling or low-swelling natural clay characterized by its excellent cation-exchange capacity, high surface area, and superior adsorptive properties. It acts as a powerful bonding agent, decolorizing medium, clarifying catalyst, and natural absorbent across a wide spectrum of industrial, agricultural, environmental, and personal care applications. KEY APPLICATIONS & INDUSTRIAL USES 1. Edible Oil Refining & Bleaching Earth: Functions as a prime raw material for manufacturing activated bleaching earth. It effectively adsorbs impurities, pigments (chlorophyll, carotenoids), heavy metals, and phosphatides from crude vegetable oils, edible fats, animal fats, and mineral lubricants. 2. Industrial Absorbent & Wastewater Treatment: Utilized as an eco-friendly absorbent for cleaning oil spills, grease, and liquid chemical waste. In wastewater treatment facilities, it helps bind toxic heavy metals, suspended solids, and organic pollutants, assisting in effective flocculation and water purification. 3. Agriculture, Animal Feed & Soil Conditioner: - Animal Feed Additive: Acts as an effective toxin binder (aflatoxin, mycotoxins) and anti-caking agent in poultry, cattle, and aquaculture feed, enhancing gut health and nutrient absorption. - Soil Amendment: Improves soil structure, boosts cation-exchange capacity (CEC), enhances moisture retention in sandy soils, and prevents leaching of fertilizers. 4. Metallurgy & Metal Casting: Serves as a reliable binder in green sand molding for iron and non-ferrous foundries where controlled expansion and high dry strength are required. 5. Personal Care, Cosmetics & Pharmaceuticals: Widely recognized as "Healing Clay" or "Living Clay" in cosmetics. Used in facial mud masks, detoxifying body wraps, soaps, and skincare
