Bentonite usually forms from weathering of volcanic ash, most often in the presence of water. However, the term bentonite, as well as a similar clay called tonstein, have been used for clay beds of uncertain origin. For industrial purposes, two main classes of bentonite exist: sodium and calcium bentonite.
Bentonite haw wide using application fields.
- Because of its good physical and chemical properties, do binder, suspending agent, thixotropic agent, stabilizer, purification bleaching agent, filling material, feed, catalyst, etc., bentonite are widely used in agriculture, light industry and cosmetics, medicine and other fields.
- Bentonite can be used in cement, adhesives, ceramic bodies, and cat litter. Bentonite is also used as a binding agent in the manufacture of taconite pellets as used in the steelmaking industry.
- The ionic surface of bentonite has a useful property in making a sticky coating on sand grains.
- The same effluvial deposition of bentonite clay onto beaches accounts for the variety of plasticity of sand from place to place for building sand castles.
Bentonite Grinding Mill
The bentonite must be grinded into bentonite clay powder before furture processing. The most suitable bentonite grinding mill is SBM YGM high pressure grinding mill.
High pressure grinding mill, widely using in metallurgy, building materials, chemical, mining and other mineral materials' grinding process, can make a wide range of final product particle size in grinding bentonite, whose thick size is up to 0.95 mm (20 mesh) and thin size is up to 0.038 mm (400 mesh). Compared with the common Raymond grinding mill under the same power conditions, the capacity of YGM high pressure grinding mill can be increased by 10%; moreover, under the performance of high-pressure springs, the rollers grinding pressure on raw materials can be raised by 800-1200kgf. Its dust-removing effect fully meets the national dust discharge standard and its classifier is easy for adjustment.
SBM also supplies other grinding mills, which can be used in bentonite grinding process. These grinding mills include ball mill, LM vertical mill, Raymond mill, MTW trapezium mill and so on.
