Bentonite

Factual: The main component of bentonite, an extremely soft flexible clay, is montmorillonite, a hydrous aluminium silicate with tiny particle size and a member of the smectite group.

Features: In addition to montmorillonite, bentonites contain a range of accessory minerals. These minerals could include gypsum, quartz, feldspar, and calcite. Bentonite has significant colloidal characteristics, and when it reacts with water, its volume multiplies many times, resulting in a gelatinous and viscous fluid. Because of its unique characteristics, including hydration, swelling, water absorption, viscosity, and thixotropy, bentonite is a valuable material for a variety of functions and applications.

NBT Offering: We offer different grades of Bentonite, being used in Oil and Gas, Feedstock, Construction Activites, Chemicals and many more

Description

More Information

30-1-2 BARYTES Baryte or barite is a moderately soft crystalline mineral form of barium sulphate (BaSO4). Approximately, 80% barytes produced worldwide is used for oil and gas drilling as a weighting agent in the drill mud, primarily to prevent the explosive release of gas and oil during drilling. Its unique physical and chemical properties like heaviness, high specific gravity, chemical and physical inertness, very low solubility and magnetic neutrality. Barium compounds are utilised as filler, extender and aggregate. Baryte after converting to barium carbonate, is used in the manufacture of ceramic and glass. The Mangampet deposit in Kadapa district of Andhra Pradesh is the single largest barytes deposit in the world.
