What are the applications for SEPIOCLAY® sepiolite?
Paints and coatings: Our SEPIOCLAY® sepiolite powder is used for its rheological properties, particularly its thixotropic effect. As sepiolite is light in colour, it is easy to incorporate into formulations.
Other uses: SEPIOCLAY® sepiolite can be used for other specific applications requiring a source of magnesium or, for example, specific absorption properties.
What are the properties of SEPIOCLAY® sepiolite?
SEPIOCLAY® sepiolite acts as a flow and consistency regulator in systems by absorbing fluid compounds. It improves the dispersion and distribution of fillers and fibres by forming a cross-linked structure within the matrix. Due to its morphology and surface characteristics, it also acts as a reinforcing filler when used with polar polymers. Furthermore, its ability to adsorb microorganisms and chemical compounds, thanks to its chemical inertness, makes it a valuable addition to many industrial formulations.
How is our SEPIOCLAY® sepiolite packaged and delivered?
What is sepiolite?
Sepiolite is a mineral belonging to the group of fibrous clays. Each fibre consists of a multitude of regularly spaced tunnels (or canalicules) measuring approximately 1 nm². This distinctive structure, resembling elongated hollow bricks, gives sepiolite a remarkable specific surface area.
