    Recommended Applications
    • Paint applications : Load widely used in all paint systems, its lamellar characteristic gives a more uniform surface finish and good coverage, its adsorption capacity promotes better adhesion between the particles and the polymer improving the resistance to washability (or abrasion test), it gives flexibility , its morphology gives the kaolin a greater resistance to sedimentation, guaranteeing a better stability to the system, for enamel, flexographic paints, etc.
    • Rubber application : Used as a load in the manufacture of high quality rubber, improving the mechanical resistance to pressure, cohesion and increasing the resistance to friction.
    • General applications : It is used in the manufacture of ceramics, glues, adhesives, as vehicles for active liquids (insecticides and others), light abrasive, in the manufacture of soaps, white portland cement, plaster fillers for walls, in medicine it is used as an adsorbent of toxins from the appliance digestive, etc.
