Premium grade bentonite suitable for foundry, drilling, civil engineering, and industrial applications.
Sodium Bentonite Lumps are naturally occurring, Montmorillonite-based clay minerals known for their high swelling capacity, superior water absorption, and excellent binding properties. Supplied as natural lumps that are crushed and screened, this premium-quality sodium bentonite is widely used across multiple industries where sealing, bonding, and permeability control are critical.
Due to its ability to expand significantly when hydrated, Sodium Bentonite forms a low-permeability barrier, making it an ideal material for foundry moulding sand, oil and water well drilling, civil engineering works, pond lining, waterproofing systems, and iron ore pelletization.
These properties make Sodium Bentonite an effective natural solution for sealing, stabilizing, and binding applications.
Sodium Bentonite is widely used as a binder in moulding sand, improving green strength, mould stability, surface finish, and resistance to erosion during metal casting.
In drilling applications, Sodium Bentonite acts as a key drilling fluid additive, helping to:
Used in cutoff walls, diaphragm walls, foundations, and tunneling, Sodium Bentonite provides effective seepage control and ground stabilization in large-scale infrastructure projects.
Thanks to its swelling and sealing properties, Sodium Bentonite is ideal for pond lining, canals, reservoirs, landfills, and waterproofing systems, forming an impermeable barrier against water leakage.
In iron ore processing, Sodium Bentonite serves as a binding agent that improves pellet strength, durability, and handling during transportation and processing.
Sodium Bentonite is used in foundry moulding sand, oil and water well drilling, civil engineering, pond lining, waterproofing, and iron ore pelletization due to its swelling, binding, and sealing properties.
Sodium Bentonite swells when mixed with water, forming a viscous gel that stabilizes boreholes, controls fluid loss, and efficiently removes drill cuttings.
Sodium Bentonite lumps are supplied in natural crushed form and are commonly used for further processing or customized grinding, while powder is ready for direct application.
Yes. When hydrated, Sodium Bentonite expands and creates a low-permeability barrier, making it highly effective for waterproofing and sealing applications.
