Acti-Min

Acti-Min® CR is a clean, high quality, white-fring kaolin especially selected for the ceramic and refractories industries. Acti-Min® CR has an intermediately fine particle size and has relatively high plasticity.

Acti-Min® PG is a carefully produced, high quality, kaolin clay designed for the paint industry. It is also well suited to adhesives, sealants, and white rubber applications. Strict attention to the clay source and to process control assures a consistently high brightness and suitable particle size for the use in the contractor-grade paints. The naturally fine particle size of Acti-Min® PG keeps the +325 Mesh low and has a higher percentage of particles less than 0.5 microns compared to coarser clays. This size distribution allows the paint formulator to maximize the hiding power of titanium dioxide (TiO2), while reducing overall formulation cost.

Acti-Min® RG is a high quality, low residue, air floated sedimentary hard kaolin clay. Strict attention to production and quality control assures a high degree of product uniformity. Acti-Min RG is classified to a very low 325 mesh residue, making it suitable for any customers who may be sensitive to fine, non-kaolin residue. Hard Clays are very fine in their natural particle size. They provide high modules, tensile strength, abrasion resistance, green strength and stiffness to elasometric compounds.

Acti-Min™ Sunblock kaolin-based mineral product, when properly applied to plant leaves and fruit, forms a dry white barrier film that can provide protective benefits to agricultural crops. Through independent studies1 and a decade of Active Minerals’ Acti-Min kaolin products in commercial field experience, kaolin mineral film barriers have shown effectiveness in reducing plant stress, minimizing sunburn, and enhancing growth across a multitude of crops. This product is OMRI listed for organic use.
