Lithium nitride CAS 26134-62-3

Kaolin, also known as china clay, is a naturally occurring hydrated aluminum silicate mineral. It is a soft, white, plastic clay that is widely used in ceramics, papermaking, and as a pigment in paints, coatings, and plastics. Kaolin is valued for its fine particle size, purity, and ability to improve the brightness and opacity of materials. Its inert nature and high refractive index make it ideal for various industrial applications, including cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

Silicon dioxide, commonly known as silica, is a naturally occurring compound found in quartz and sand. It is a primary component of most rocks and is widely used in various industries due to its high thermal stability, chemical inertness, and optical clarity. In chemical applications, it is valued for its abrasive, refractory, and adsorptive properties, making it essential in products like glass, ceramics, and electronics.

Bentonite, sodium-activated, is a type of clay rich in montmorillonite minerals, which undergoes a process to increase its sodium content. This alteration enhances its swelling and adsorptive properties, making it a highly effective thickener and gel-forming agent. Sodium bentonite is widely used in drilling muds, foundry sands, and as a binder in various industrial applications. Its ability to absorb liquids and form stable gels makes it invaluable in cosmetics, agriculture, and as a component in the manufacturing of ceramics and paper products.
