Natural non-metallic mineral raw materials, safe, non-toxic, and physically inert. It is non-irritating, non-residual, and not absorbed by the body, making it safe for pets, infants, and young children.
Features a unique odor absorption layer structure with an extremely large specific surface area. It rapidly absorbs and locks in odors, moisture, bacteria, and drug substances on contact.
Quickly expands and solidifies when contacting water. The compact agglomerate does not disperse or stick to the bottom, ensuring easy cleanup and minimal product waste.
Boasts a fine texture and high compaction with almost no dust, ensuring it is non-irritating to the respiratory tract and highly friendly to sensitive individuals and pets.
Highly resistant to moisture and high temperatures. It is not easily deteriorated or moldy, enabling long-term storage while maintaining stable functional performance.
Adsorbed interlayer cations are exchangeable in aqueous media. This reversible property allows the preparation of sodium-based bentonite, lithium-based montmorillonite, activated clay, and organic montmorillonite.
Contains numerous structural hydroxyl groups with strong hydrophilicity. Volume can expand up to dozens of times upon hydration, progressing through surface, ionic, and permeation hydration stages.
Due to their negative charge, particles repel each other in water, preventing large aggregates at low concentrations. This makes it an ideal suspension agent, performing exceptionally well in alkaline conditions.
Hydrates and expands to form a stable three-dimensional network structure. This structure traps water molecules and lotion particles, increasing motion resistance to achieve a reliable thickening effect.
Colloidal structure is disrupted during stirring, causing viscosity to drop into a sol state. Once standing still, the structure fully recovers, raising the viscosity back to a gel state. This process is fully reversible.
Chemical: Insoluble in water and solvents, wide pH resistance.
Thermal: Withstands temperatures of 550 °C - 750 °C without structural damage.
Biological: Completely immune to bacteria, mold, and enzymatic hydrolysis.
| Field | Use Cases |
|---|---|
| Medicine & Personal Care |
Antidiarrheal medicine: Adsorbs intestinal bacteria, toxins, and excess water while repairing the mucosal barrier. Dermatological medication: Used for diaper rash, acne, and eczema due to drying and protective actions. Cosmetics: Acts as an adsorbent, thickener, and suspension stabilizer in creams and facial masks. |
| Industrial Sector |
Drilling mud: Key material to cool drill bits, carry rock debris, and maintain wellbore stability. Casting & Metallurgy: Serves as a binder for molding sand and iron ore pellets. Environmental protection: Treats heavy metals, organic compounds, and dyes in wastewater, and forms landfill anti-seepage layers. Catalysts, Papermaking & Coatings: Used as active carriers, paper fillers, and coating thickeners. |
| Agriculture & Animal Husbandry |
Feed additive: Functions as an anti-fungal agent to adsorb mycotoxins and support animal intestinal health. Soil amendment: Enhances soil water/fertilizer retention, adjusts pH value, and aids slow-release fertilizers. Pesticide carrier: Enhances pesticide adhesion to plant surfaces for controlled release. |
| Daily Life |
Pet supplies: Main component of premium cat litter for water absorption, clumping, and odor control. Desiccant: Protective packaging moisture absorber for food and electronics. Detergent: Serves as a fabric softener and anti-redeposition agent. |
Yes, natural Montmorillonite is a non-toxic, non-metallic mineral with strong physical inertness. Since it is non-irritating and not absorbed by the body, it is safe to use in environments with pets, infants, and young children.
Montmorillonite has a unique layer structure that provides a very large specific surface area. This physical conformation generates a super-strong adsorption force, allowing it to quickly lock in odors, moisture, and bacteria on contact.
Absolutely not. Pharmaceutical-grade and industrial-grade Montmorillonite have very different purity levels and impurity control standards. Industrial bentonite contains impurities and must never be consumed or used for medicinal purposes.
It acts as a highly effective antifungal agent and toxin binder. By adsorbing harmful mycotoxins in feed, it helps safeguard animal intestinal health and prevents diarrhea.
No, Montmorillonite is highly stable. It has excellent thermal stability (withstanding temperatures up to 550 °C - 750 °C) and high biological stability. It will not degrade, smell, or mold under hot, humid conditions, unlike organic thickeners.
It should be taken 1-2 hours apart from other medications to avoid hindering their absorption. Additionally, prevent overdosing to avoid constipation, and always drink sufficient fluids during acute diarrhea treatment to prevent dehydration.
