SEPIOLITE химические свойства, назначение, производство
Описание
Sepiolite has been proven to be an excellent absorbent material due to its high porosity and absorptive capacity, making it highly suitable for use in cat litter and industrial absorbents. Additionally, sepiolite's natural properties make it an ideal carrier for insecticides and herbicides, ensuring effective distribution and application.In conclusion, the demand for sepiolite is expected to continue growing in various applications, with the highest growth rates projected in industrial and animal feed sectors.
Химические свойства
Sepiolite is similar to attapulgite but has an additional SiO4
tetrahedron at regular intervals on the chain, so that the united
cell is about 50% larger than that of attapulgite; usually
clay-like, nodular, and fibrous; also compact massive (meerschaum)
or leathery (mountain skin).
. Hardness: 2–2.5 on Mohs’ scale
. Density:～2
. Color: White with tints of gray-green or red; also light
yellow
Использование
A primary use of sepiolite
was as an animal waste absorbent (cat litter).
Методы производства
Aparticularly pure form of sepiolite mined in Europe and the
Middle East is known as “meerschaum” and has been used
historically for carving pipes and cigarette holders. Sepiolite
production in 1983 was less than half of the estimated 1.1
million of attapulgite in the world.
Общее описание
Sepiolite is a hydrated magnesium silicate that belongs to the class of sepiolite-palygorskite. Its properties include high absorption capacity and good rheological behavior.
