Physical Properties
Product Description
Kaolin is available in various purity grades, which directly affect its suitability for different
industrial applications. High-purity kaolin, often used in pharmaceuticals and fine ceramics, contains
minimal impurities such as iron oxide and other minerals that could alter its color or reactivity.
Lower-purity kaolin grades are more suited to applications like cement and construction materials, where
minor impurities do not significantly impact performance. Purity is a critical parameter as it
influences kaolin's brightness, whiteness, and overall effectiveness in applications that demand minimal
contamination.DB-80 is a high brightness, fine particle size and high radius-thickness ratio calcined
kaolin. It has moderate oil absorption, good matting effect and good opacity. As a good titanium dioxide
extender, DB-80 incorporates readily into solvent-based and water-based coatings, where it replaces
titanium dioxide partially and reduce production cost, provides excellent dry opacity and tinting
strength for paint film.
