Overview of Bentonite Powder

Bentonite Powder is a naturally occurring clay material primarily composed of montmorillonite. It is well known for its excellent swelling, adsorption, and rheological properties. When mixed with water, it forms a gel-like mass, making it highly useful across various industrial applications.

Bentonite is widely used in drilling mud preparation, foundry sand binding, water purification, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and many other sectors. Its ability to absorb impurities, enhance viscosity, and act as a binder makes it an essential raw material in multiple industries.

Related clay and absorbent materials available on our website include Activated Clay, Fuller's Earth, and Attapulgite Clay.
