It is used in fresh water drilling, slurry wall, and industrial applications. TYPE Powder Bentonite MESH 200 Mesh KEY CHARACTERISTIC _ PRESENTATION 100 lb. Paper Bag SDS INFORMATION PRODUCT BULLETIN Bentonite is an absorbent aluminum phyllosilicate, impure clay consisting mostly of montmorillonite. Bentonite usually forms from the weathering of volcanic ash, most often in the presence of water. There are different types of bentonites that are each named after the respective dominant element, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and aluminum. ABI handles sodium bentonite. Sodium bentonite expands when wet, absorbing as much as several times its dry mass in water. It also has excellent colloidal properties. The main uses of sodium bentonite are for fresh water drilling mud (oil/gas, water well and horizontal directional drilling), binder (e.g. foundry-sand bond, iron ore pelletizer), absorbent (pet litter), groundwater barrier (pond lining and gas collection) and industrial applications (viscosity builder and suspension agent). & IRON ORE PELLETIZING Binder Untreated Gel Lubricant Suspension Agent Premium Gel High Yield Premium Bore Absorbent Clumping 8-Mesh Granular Viscosity Building Suspension Agent Premium Gel High Yield Water Barrier Sealant 8-Mesh Medium Plug STEP 1 Determine your packaging needs for the product and type of packaging you need for your project.
