Roasted Bentonite Granules Manufacturing Industry. Bentonite Clay Granules. Bentonite Granules as Filler in Agro Chemicals

Bentonite- is a highly colloidal clay mineral which gets its name from the place where its presence and usages were first discovered – Fort Benton, America. The multiple properties of bentonite namely hydration, swelling, water absorption, viscosity, thixotropy make it a multi-application product for diverse industries.

It is soft clay, it loosens the soil and allows air as well as other nutrients to reach the roots. If it is mixed with seed while sowing it soften the soil near the seed and help the new roots to grow. On coming in contact of water it immediately allow the formulated to release in soil. It is a low cost but natural friendly product.

Bentonite clay is also used in pyrotechnics, to make end plugs and rocket engine nozzles. Bentonite has remarkable colloidal and waterproofing properties. Bentonite gels are used as a carrier for a number of cosmetic preparations, toothpastes, creams, etc. Bentonite is also used in Chemical, Rubber, Insecticide & Pesticide Industries and in civil construction works.

Uses of Bentonite Granules as Filler in Agro Chemicals

·         They are bio degradable they break down into small particles slowly in the fields when it comes in contact of water.

·         It also acts as a preservative of active ingredients. It saves the technical ingredients from the direct ultraviolet rays of sun. It does not react with the technical material because it is inert.

·         As the raw clay used to make blank granules is soft by nature hence make the land softer and moist.

·         Due to its hardness and high absorbent capacity while formulation it doesn’t stick to the wall of blender/mixture or form cakes.

·         It is in the form of granules so it’s easy to apply in the field in wind condition and also on the standing crop. It can be mixed with Fertilizers OR seed before sowing.

They are widely used as carrier in formulation of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, bio-pesticides, Plant growth promoter and Bio-fertilizers. Apart from filler, it also benefit as natural soil conditioner.

The main uses of bentonite are for drilling mud, binder (e.g. foundry-sand bond, iron ore pelletizer), purifier, absorbent (e.g. pet litter), and as a groundwater barrier.

Useful for:

·         Improving intestinal regularity

·         Reliving chronic constipation

·         As a medicine for diarrhea and indigestion

·         Improving tissue and gum repair

·         Increasing resistance to infections

·         Eliminating anemia and acne

Bentonite clay has been gaining popularity in recent years as an internal and external cleanser for very good reasons. Bentonite clay is primarily composed of the mineral, montmorillonite which, if it contains sodium as an exchangeable ion, can swell up to six times its size when wet; this makes it the most adsorbent and absorbent of all the clays.

The company is well known in the market for the export and the supply of a wide range of products such as the Bentonite Clay which are high on demand in the market and they are used for a wide range of applications in the market and they are used for a wide range of applications in various industries and they have been priced at very reasonable rates in the market. The clay is manufactured using the best quality of raw materials in the market.

Bentonite is a highly colloidal clay mineral which contains a various minerals such as feldspar, quartz, gypsum and calcite. Properties such as water swelling, absorption, hydration and viscosity broaden the application scope of bentonite across a wide range of industries, such as food and pharmaceuticals. It finds its use in the manufacture of detergents, paints pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, polishes, dyes, animal feed and paper. For instance, it is used as a binding agent in the production of iron ore pellets and finds application in foundries. Also, based on application or use of finished product the mechanical and chemical properties of bentonite can be modified through various combinations and additions of raw materials.

Some of the major driving factors identified in the global bentonite market include rapid growth of the construction sector in emerging markets and Use of bentonite in treating and filtering water is also driving the growth of the market. In addition, government support to SMEs in this region is forecast to further boost growth of the market. However, stiff competition on account of substitute products and shrinking profit margin can impede the growth of the market. Increasing application of bentonite in landscaping and landfill as a geosynthetics clay liner (GCL) are the key trends in the market.

Bentonite is also used in many foundry applications such as sand casting applications. It is extensively employed as a green sand additive or binder in metal casting applications. Demand for bentonite is projected to increase significantly in the next few years considering the extensive growth of the green sand casting process. Asia Pacific dominates the bentonite market in terms of production and demand. Countries such as China, India, Japan, and South Korea are expected to be the key consumers of bentonite. North America is the second largest consuming region. Bentonite is also used as a major constituent of drilling fluids in oil & gas industry. The sluggish growth of the oil & gas industry has remarkably affected the bentonite market. This trend is anticipated to continue during the forecast period, and is therefore expected to unfavorably affect the market growth.

On the basis of product type, the global bentonite market is segmented into calcium, sodium, and others. Key end-use application segments include sealant, binder, clarification agent, drilling fluid, and absorbent/adsorbent. Oil, food, construction, foundry, and pharmaceuticals are the key end-use industries for the bentonite market. North America is the largest market for bentonite, while Asia Pacific is the fastest growing.The report analyses the global bentonite market in terms of value (US$ Mn) and volume (‘000 tonnes) by region, product type, end-use application and end-use industries, and provides insightful information regarding market dynamics, value chain, competitive landscape, current trends, market estimations and forecast.

Bentonite is one of the key raw materials used in construction. It has an ability to swell and gel when dispersed in water, which is used in construction, primarily in excavation and foundation works. Rising construction industry is therefore expected to propel the bentonite market during the forecast period, owing to its use in various construction applications.

The leading players in the global market for bentonite are Minerals Technologies Inc., IMERYS SA, Clariant International Ltd., Ashapura Group, Bentonite Performance Minerals LLC, American Colloid Co., Canbensan, and Dantonit A/S.

Bulk of the resources i.e., 424 million tonnes (76%) are in Rajasthan, 134 million tonnes (24%) in Gujarat and the remaining in Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand and Jammu & Kashmir. About 9 million tonnes resources are placed under drilling fluid grade, 55 million tonnes under foundry grade and 19 million tonnes resources are placed under poor/blendable grades, respectively. Substantial quantity (485 million tonnes or 85%) of total resources is placed under 'unclassified' and 'not-known' categories.

The Indian bentonite industry is expected to perform better in the coming years because of emerging demand for oil clarification and cat litter. The biggest market for bentonite in both North America and European countries are foundry, cat litter, iron ore pelletising and drilling. Civil engineering and environmental applications, such as landfills require bentonite for use as a sealant and lubricant.

Bentonite is among the exportable mineral commodities in India. Bentonite is exported both in unprocessed (crude) and processed (including activated) forms. Though, export of crude bentonite account for a higher quantity, the exports of processed bentonite fetch higher value than the crude bentonite. There is scope to establish bentonite processing granulation and paint-grade processed bentonite units in the country to meet the indigenous demand as well as demand in the international market.
