Bentonite Powder is a natural clay material known for its high absorbency and plasticity. Belonging to the smectite group of minerals, it exhibits low permeability and is predominantly composed of montmorillonite, which gives it unique swelling properties when mixed with water. Ideal for oil drilling fluids, construction materials, and as a binder in various applications, its selection is based on factors such as particle size, purity, and grade. Buyers should specify the Super AKG Hi-Bond grade when ordering to ensure compatibility with their specific processes.
