Brief Description
Kaolin-
Kaolin is derived from the mineral Kaolinite which comes from the Earth’s crust. It is an aluminum silicate represented as Al2O3•2SiO2•2H2O. Kaolin products can be used in a wide variety of applications like architectural and industrial coatings, construction, rubbers, plastics, packaging and papers.
