Levigated Kaolin

Levigated Kolin / China Clay Overview

Levigated China Clay Lumps are water-refined lumps of high-quality kaolin clay, primarily used as raw material for producing fine powdered clay. At Asteroid Microns Group of companies, our Levigated China Clay Lumps are known for their consistent mineralogy, high whiteness, and controlled moisture content—making them ideal for manufacturers who require bulk raw kaolin for further processing.

The Levigation Process

Levigation is a process in which the raw kaolin is subjected to water-based separation techniques to remove unwanted minerals, grit, and other impurities. The process involves creating a slurry by mixing the raw kaolin with water, allowing the heavier impurities to settle, and then carefully decanting the water with suspended impurities. These lumps are processed through levigation to remove impurities like iron and titanium, enhancing their brightness, plasticity, and chemical stability. The remaining fine particles of kaolin are collected and dried to produce levigated kaolin.

Objectives of Levigation

The main objective of levigating kaolin is to enhance its purity and achieve an even distribution of particle sizes. This process aims to create a finer and purer product that is better suited for various applications. Levigated kaolin offers advantages such as increased brightness, smoother texture, and improved rheological properties. These qualities make it highly sought after for applications like top-notch ceramics, glossy paper coatings, and various specialty products.

Market Worth of Levigated Kaolin

It's worth mentioning that levigated kaolin is one among various processed kaolin types available in the market. Each type serves different purposes, and the processing methods employed may differ as well. The selection of kaolin type depends on the requirements for a given application.
