Technical Information
Prospect and application of washed kaolin
The distribution of washed kaolin in China is relatively wide, mainly concentrated in Jiangxi, Hubei, Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian and other provinces. These areas not only have the advantage of kaolin resources reserves, but also have the corresponding technical level and processing capacity, making them an important base for China's washed kaolin industry.

Comprehensive utilization status of kaolin
Kaolin is a nonmetallic mineral, a type of clay and claystone dominated by kaolinite group clay minerals. It is also known as dolomite because it is white and delicate. The pure kaolin is white, delicate and soft, with good physical and chemical properties such as plasticity and fire resistance. Its mineral composition mainly consists of kaolinite, eclogite, mica, illite, montmorillonite, quartz, feldspar and other minerals. Kaolin has a wide range of uses, mainly used in paper, ceramics and refractory materials, followed by paints, rubber fillers, enamel glaze and white cement raw materials, a small amount of plastics, paints, pigments, abrasive wheels, pencils, cosmetics, soaps, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, textiles, petroleum, chemical industry, building materials, national defense and other industrial sectors.
How to judge the advantages and disadvantages of kaolin?
Kaolin whiteness is divided into natural whiteness and calcined whiteness. For ceramic raw materials, the higher the calcined whiteness is the better the quality. The presence of impurities such as Fe2O3 and MnO2 in kaolin will reduce its natural whiteness.
