    • What is bentonite mineral?

    Bentonite is a clay mineral. The name bentonite was first used by a scientist named Knight in ۱۸۹۸. It is derived from the local term Benton shales in the US state of Wyoming.

    The use of bentonite dates back to prehistoric times. This mineral has had healing effects in some gastrointestinal diseases and wounds. It also has the ability to absorb heavy metals, bacteria and anti-nutrients.

    Iranians have long known bentonite as pigmented soils or saline soils and soapy clays, and have been familiar with some of its properties, such as washing clothes and as a cleaning agent.

    Ibn Sina, a famous Iranian physician, also mentioned this mineral as a brittle substance that dissolves well in water. In Western countries it is known as soapy clay or Tellurite or Montmorillonite or Bentonite.

    • Definition of bentonite:

    Bentonite is a mineral of clay or quasi-clay that is composed of swollen minerals. Bentonites generally contain montmorillonite and a small amount of bide lite. For this reason, bentonite refers to clay that contains ۶۰-۹۰% of the Montmorillonite mineral. The name Montmorillonite is derived from the local name Montmorillon in southern of France.

    • Classification of bentonites:

    Bentonites are divided into two main groups:

    1. Sodium bentonites.
    2. Calcium bentonites.

    The properties of different types of bentonites depend on their chemical composition and physical properties. In sodium bentonite mineral ion adsorption rate, ductility, expansion and contraction are higher than calcium bentonite and calcium bentonite has more resistance than sodium bentonite.

    • General applications of bentonite:

    Bentonite has many uses due to its properties of softness, swelling, relatively good ability to mix with water, paste, plasticity, adhesion, adsorption, etc., including the production of drilling mud, preparation of cast sand , Preventing water leakage in dams and water canals, Liquid clarifying agent such as juices and wine, Water clarifier and filtering liquids such as paraffin, Mineral pellets such as iron ore, Animal feed pellets, Conveyor agent in He mentioned paints and other sprays, the preparation of plant and animal toxins, fillers in industries such as paper making, the production of cleaners and detergents, and the preparation of various types of ceramics and the painting and refining of various oils. Bentonite is also used as earth well bentonite.

    Each type of bentonite is commonly used in a number of the above activities. For example, calcium bentonite is used as in foundry sand an oil and grease absorber, filtering and refining and animal feeds.

    Sodium bentonite is commonly used in drilling soils, iron pelletizing, civil engineering, and animal feeds.
