Bentonite powder is a fine - grained, highly absorbent material derived from the weathering of volcanic ash. It mainly consists of montmorillonite, a clay mineral with a unique crystal structure. This structure allows montmorillonite to expand and absorb large amounts of water, giving bentonite its characteristic swelling property.
Bentonite powder is renowned for its excellent absorbency. It can soak up liquids many times its own weight, making it widely used in applications where liquid absorption is crucial.
In cat litter, bentonite powder effectively traps and deodorizes urine, keeping the litter box clean. In the drilling industry, it is used as a key component in drilling mud. Bentonite - based mud helps to cool and lubricate the drill bit, while also preventing the collapse of the borehole by forming a protective lining.
Moreover, bentonite powder has good adhesive and thickening properties. In the food and pharmaceutical industries, it is used as a thickening agent in products like ice cream and some medications. In cosmetics, it can be found in facial masks, where it helps to draw out impurities from the skin and provides a smooth texture. Its natural origin and diverse functional properties make bentonite powder an essential material in multiple industrial and consumer - related sectors.
