Kaolin is an important industrial mineral having numerous uses and requiring various market specifications. High brightness kaolin clays represent a continuing challenge to the producer. An advancement in this field of Kaolinite Clay Beneficiation has been a patented process developed by Minerals and Chemicals Philipp Corporation and termed Ultra Flotation. Contaminants that are 1 …

(061)The present invention provides high brightness kaolins exhibiting a Brightness (GE) of at least about 90.0. The hydrous kaolin pigments of the present invention may also have, inter alia, a steepness index (d30/d70 X 100) of at least about 39 and/or a titania concentration less than or equal to about 0.40% by weight of the pigment on a dry basis.

We claim: 1. A method for making a low abrasion kaolin clay pigment suitable for filling paper produced from mechanical pulp which comprises selecting a kaolin crude composed of kaolin particles having a low crystallinity index, a G.E. brightness below 82%; a particle size distribution such that at least 75% by weight is finer than 2 microns; said kaolin containing at least 1.2%, by weight Fe ...

Kaolin is the most extensively used particulate mineral in the filling and coating of paper. It improves paper appearance, which is characterized by gloss, smoothness, brightness and opacity, and of greatest significance, it improves printability. Paper is also filled with kaolin to extend fiber.

As a filler, the kaolin is mixed with the cellulose fibers in wood pulp and as a coating, the kaolin is mixed with water, adhesives, and various additives and coated onto the surface of the paper. The coating makes the paper sheet smoother, brighter, glossier, more opaque, and most importantly, improves the printability ( Bundy, 1993 ).

The coating kaolin grades produced are engineered to give high performance and value in use. These grades are processed to classify the particles to specific particle size ranges by the removal of both ultrafine and coarse particles and the brightness is improved through the removal of impurities by magnetic separation and a bleaching process.

of kaolin pigments for use in paper filling has evolved less rapidly than for paper coating, but significant strides in filler pigments have been made in the last 10-15 years. Kaolin as a filler is added at the beginning of the papermaking process, where it is admixed with pulp and water.

Mini-Encyclopedia of Papermaking Wet-End Chemistry Additives and Ingredients, their Composition, Functions, Strategies for Use. CLAY. Composition: This discussion will be limited to kaolin, the most common form of clay added to paper as a filler.(Bentonite, a generic term for montmorillonite clay, is a microparticle, and it is described elsewhere in this mini-encyclopedia.)

Premium brightness spray dried kaolin. Acts as a filler. It is available in bead form for easier handling and less dusting. Recommended for water-borne gloss, semi-gloss- and textile coatings...

It is refractory and remains white after calcination. Additionally, the Kaolin produced by GMCI is hydrophilic and can be easily dispersed in water, while also being a weak conductor for electricity and heat. Additionally, it also has high brightness and is non-abrasive. Kaolin is one of the most indispensable fillers in the paint industry.

When used as a coating on the surface of the paper, its whiteness improves the brightness and opacity of the paper. In addition, the size and shape of single kaolin particles give the brightness and quality of the printed paper required for many different types of paper (like those necessary for magazines, leaflet, cartons or boxes, among others).

Nucap® 100G Ultrafine 0.5 22 88 50; 56 7 Nucap 100G is a cost effective, moderate brightness, sulfur-functional silane treated clay for use in rubber as a partial thermal black replacement. Nucap® 190W Ultrafine 0.4 22 91 50; 56 6 Nucap 190W is a high brightness sulfur-functional silane treated kaolin used in white roofing membranes

The largest use of kaolin is in the paper industry (as filler and as a coating on the paper surface to enhance the ) and the ceramics manufacture as additives [10]. For both industries, a great whiteness is required for the quality of the final products. Egyptian kaolin is present in three main areas namely, Sinai, Red

The suitability of kaolin as a filler or coating pigment relates principally to the physical properties with particle size, brightness and low abrasiveness being important for filler grade products and the addition of favorable rheo- logical properties being required for good coating …
