Bentonite is a type of clay that is composed of aged volcanic ash. It is widely used in the production of porcelain due to its high plasticity and absorbent properties. Bentonite is also used in the production of ceramic glazes, as a binder in foundry sand, and as a drilling mud for oil and gas wells. It is also used in the production of paper, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Bentonite is mined in many countries around the world, including the United States, China, India, and Greece. The global bentonite market is expected to grow steadily in the coming years due to its increasing use in various industries. Some of the major companies in the bentonite market include Clariant, Imerys, Ashapura Group, American Colloid Company, and Bentonite Performance Minerals. Show Less Read more
