Diatomite is a biogenic siliceous sedimentary rock. Its main component is amorphous silicon dioxide (SiO2), which can be represented as SiO2·nH2O. The mineral composition is amorphous opal and its variants. Siltstone is usually light yellow or light gray. With the increase of impurities, it may turn yellow or green. It is soft, porous and light, with a bulk density of 0.34 - 0.65 g/cm³, a high water absorption rate, and is 2 - 4 times the volume of its own. At the same time, it has high chemical stability and thermal stability, and excellent adsorption performance.
1: Neutral pH value, non-toxic, excellent suspension performance, strong adsorption capacity, light density, oil absorption rate 115%, fineness ranging from 325 mesh to 500 mesh, good uniformity in mixing, will not clog agricultural machinery pipelines during use, can play a role in soil moisture retention, loosening soil texture, prolonging the efficacy time of pesticides and fertilizers, and promoting the growth of crops.
2: Diatomite should be used as an additive in cement. Adding 5% diatomite during cement production can enhance the strength of the cement. The SiO2 in the cement becomes more active and can be used as emergency cement. Plastics industry: Household plastic products, construction plastic products, agricultural plastics, window and door plastics, various plastic pipes, and other light and heavy industrial plastic products.
3: It has excellent extensibility, high impact strength, tensile strength, tear strength, light weight, soft texture, good grinding performance, and good compressive strength. These are all excellent properties.
4: Neutral pH value, non-toxic, with a fineness ranging from 120 mesh to 1200 mesh, lightweight and soft in texture, it is a high-quality filler used in oil-based paints. Feed industry: Additives for various feeds such as pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, fish, birds, and aquatic products.
5: A high-quality filler with strong sun protection properties, soft and lightweight texture, capable of eliminating leather contamination from balloon products: light in weight, neutral in pH value, non-toxic, with fine powder texture that is soft and smooth, good strength performance, and resistant to sun exposure and high temperatures. Silica dust is applied in industries such as coatings, paints, and wastewater treatment.
