Bentonite

Bentonite is a volcanic ash/clay consisting mainly of montmorillonite. Though there are different types, depending on the dominant element (either Al, Ca, K, or Na) we offer the most requested sodium (Na) type only. 

The main application is drilling mud, but it has multiple uses in different industries and also as water adsorbent in agriculture. Dry soil, such as deserts or pure sand, can be used for agricultural crop-growing due to the high water adsorption of the Bentonite, which hinders a fast drying-out of the soil. 

Further uses are e.g. in binders, cosmetics, foundry sand, paints, and coatings.
