Sodium Bentonite Powder

Sodium Bentonite Powder is a clay mineral which is largely composed of Montmorillonite, which is mainly a hydrous aluminum silicate. It is highly colloidal and plastic clay with the unique characteristic of swelling to several times its original volume when placed in water. Mining then begins by removing the overburden from the mineral deposit with the use of large earth movers. The overburden is then stockpiled nearby for reclamation after the Bentonite has been removed from the bed. When contact with the bed is made, extreme care is taken to avoid contaminating the mineral deposit with the overburden, thus insuring the highest quality raw material. Care must also be taken to conserve as much Sodium Bentonite as possible when trimming the overburden from the Bentonite. When all the Bentonite has been removed from the bed, reclamation can begin. The surface of the mine site must be returned to equal or superior condition. The habitat for plant and animal is very important as are all other environmental considerations.

Relemac India is a name that is counted amongst the prominent Bentonite clay manufacturers across New Delhi (India). As bentonite mineral powder manufacturers, we ensure that the process is undertaken by only trained professionals. Owing to our quick supply and convenient payment modes, we are also reckoned as the leading bentonite mineral powder suppliers in Delhi. So, purchase the bentonite mineral powder from the best sodium bentonite suppliers only.

Properties

• Extracted Bentonite is distinctly solid, even with a moisture content of approximately 30%.
• Bentonite is used as a bonding material in the preparation of molding sand for the production of iron, steel and non-ferrous casting.
• Used as a binding agent in the production of iron ore pellets. Through this process, iron ore fines are converted into spherical pellets, suitable as feed material in blast furnaces for pig iron production, or in the production of direct reduction iron (DRI).
• Acts as a good lubricating agent.
• Excellent absorption and adsorption properties make it an ideal option for water purification.

Processing
The Bentonite from each bed is stockpiled and thoroughly tested to insure the highest quality for all our products. It is then carefully dried and ground to meet all the product specifications. The finished product is stored in silos to await packaging and shipping to our or perspective customers
