What is Bentonite? A Highly Absorbent Natural Clay

Bentonite is a naturally occurring clay composed primarily of montmorillonite, a type of smectite mineral known for its exceptional swelling and absorption properties.

It forms from volcanic ash deposits that have undergone weathering over millions of years. When mixed with water, bentonite expands and forms a gel-like substance, making it highly effective in sealing, binding, and absorption applications.

Key Physical & Chemical Properties of Bentonite

Bentonite offers a unique combination of properties:

• High swelling capacity
• Excellent water absorption
• High plasticity and viscosity
• Strong binding properties
• Low permeability (excellent sealing ability)
• Chemical stability
• Thixotropic behavior (flows when stirred, gels when static)

These properties make bentonite indispensable across multiple industries.
