Is bentonite also called inorganic thickener?
After being purified by wet sodium process, the water soluble organic bentonite is modified by hydrophilic organic intercalation agent or amphoteric intercalation agent, which gives thickening property and has thickening property.
Sodium bentonite, sodium wet effect is far greater than the dry sodium soil, dry soil sodium sodium is not complete, cannot remove impurities of quartz lamp; wet sodium, because the reaction is carried out in aqueous solution, sodium is full, decanter grading equipment can remove most of the impurities, the purity can be increased to 90-99% about. In aqueous systems, the effect is much better than that of calcium based and dry sodium based soils, but without thickening properties.
Calcium based bentonite, raw ore, does not have thickening properties, has a certain anti sinking and thixotropy, and the effect is good, especially against sedimentation. The exchangeable cations of bentonite are Ca2+, Fe3+, Al3+ and other high valence cations, and the effect of anti sink is poor;
