BENTONITE

Clay minerals with high adsorption and absorption capacity and large surface area: PETRONIT©

Bentonite combines a large number of specific properties (adsorption and absorption capacity, pore volume, specific surface area, water retention capacity, charge properties) and is therefore used as a process additive in a wide variety of industrial applications.

We use bentonites of different qualities for the following main applications:

  • as a coating formulation additive to prevent the migration of mineral oil from packaging paper into foodstuffs
  • as a component in retention systems
  • for masking weakly dispersed sticky impurities
  • for sludge drift
  • to increase the degradation performance of N and COD
