Bentonite

Application of Bentonite
Agriculture: Bentonite is a swollen and highly viscous mineral clay, mainly formed by montmorillonite clay. Due to the special structure and high silicon dioxide content, it is able to absorb toxins, kill high mold to increase the efficiency of feed use. Bentonite is used by developed countries in the world as a filler, binding agent, and agent in the animal feed industry, using bentonite, which has both a bonding effect and a complementary ability. Anti-fungal resistance, detoxification and enhance minerals for pets.
Bentonite is also used to process microbiological fertilizers, organic fertilizers or mineral fertilizers.
Industry: Used in construction and oil exploration industry with functions: lubricating the drill; reduce torque; hardening and closing, filling dry caves, cracks in the ground during bored pile drilling.
Environment: Bentonite helps to improve soil and increase soil moisture retention in the dry season. In addition, it increases mechanical strength, increases plasticity and makes soil structure increase its strength and retain essential nutrients in the soil; limit or resist the washout of nutrients in the rainy season …
Additives in adobe brick production

Thanks to the above characteristics, Bentonite is used as a binder in the technology of unburnt brick production from raw materials of hill soil, poor soil, etc. . During production, Bentonite is considered an important additive to increase the quality of unburnt bricks. they are used as bulk materials and stored in material silos

Additives in bored pile

In construction, usually using bentonite solution, is a solution of a kind of clay mineral powder mixed with solvent is water, to make a solution to keep the city, to prevent water from underground water slots and keep stable for drilling hole. This solution is usually collected after cleaning boreholes and excavations and is used for further drilling.
