Sodium Bentonite
High Swelling Bentonite Clay for Drilling & Industrial Applications
Product Summary
Sodium Bentonite is a naturally occurring high-swelling clay composed primarily of sodium montmorillonite. It exhibits excellent water absorption, swelling capacity, viscosity, and sealing properties. Sodium Bentonite is widely used in drilling fluids, civil construction, waterproofing systems, foundry casting, and environmental sealing applications.
