Bentonite is a clay generated frequently from the alteration of volcanic ash, consisting predominantly of smectite minerals, usually montmorillonite. It is an absorbent aluminium phyllosilicate clay consisting mostly of montmorillonite. The term Bentonite was first used for a clay found in about 1890 in upper cretaceous tuff near Fort Benton, Montana. The main constituent, which is the determinant factor in the clay's properties, is the clay mineral montmorillonite. This in turn, derives its name from a deposit at Montm SALIENT FEATURES Color: Light gray to off-white with pH value: 8.3 - 9.1 Odorless & Non-staining Velveteen feel to touch APPLICATIONS Drilling Mud - Bentonite is used in drilling fluids to lubricate and cool the cutting tools, to remove cuttings, and to help prevent blowouts. Bentonite has been widely used as a foundry-sand bond in iron and steel foundries. Sodium bentonite is most commonly used for large castings that use dry molds. Bentonites are used for decolorizing various mineral, vegetable, and animal oils. They are also used for clarifying wine, liquor, cider, beer, and vinegar. Bentonite is used in a variety of pet care items such as cat litter to absorb the odour and surround the feces. It is also used to absorb oils and grease. Groundwater Barrier - The property of swelling on contact with water makes sodium bentonite useful as a sealant, since it provides a self-sealing, low-permeability barrier. Medical Uses - Bentonite has been prescribed as a bulk laxative, and it is also used as a base for many dermatologic formulas.

Bentonite is a natural product. It is ground in mills after treatmentblending to very fine powder. Bentonite is basically composed of the mineral montomorillonite which occurs in extremely fine particles. Bentonite also contains beidelite (montomorillonite family) as principal mineral. Bentonite is mixed with sand to impart plasticity and strength to it in the presence of moisture. The fine particle size and high moisture absorption, that is, high swelling property of bentonite give bonding strength or adhesion to the mass of sand grains. This standard keeps in view the quality of bentonite available in the country and known to be commercially exploited.
