Kaolin
High-Purity Clay for Cement and Ceramic Applications
Description
Kaolin is a non-metallic mineral composed mainly of hydrated aluminum silicate. It is known for its high whiteness, plasticity, and thermal stability.
In addition to traditional uses in ceramics, paper, and coatings, kaolin is also widely used as a key mineral component in the production of white cement, where it contributes to color uniformity and improved mechanical resistance.
Safety Information
Non-toxic, non-flammable, non-hazardous.
Typical Chemical Composition
Quality Control & Sampling Procedure
The quality of the material delivered is verified through a sampling and testing procedure conducted during vessel loading.
Sampling is performed according to applicable ISO or ASTM standards, ensuring representative and statistically valid samples of the shipped cargo.
Samples are analyzed for:
- Chemical composition
- Particle size
- Moisture
A Certificate of Quality is issued based on these analyses.
