Zeolite is extensively synthesized for the application in a large variety of catalysis processes
such as ion exchange, hydrocarbon cracking, and organic synthesis. In order to satisfy the …

The ceramic tile industry is a dynamic sector whose technological innovation and market
trends have drawn a complex picture of products and processes. Raw materials have been …

This research characterizes the kaolinitic clays from Cretaceous–Paleocene lateritic
deposits of Terra Alta (south Catalonia) to evaluate their possible applications. The outcrops …

The defected kaolinite is common in sedimentary kaolin, but its structure and disorder
mechanism remains unclear. In this paper, three different size distributions of kaolinite …

Technological properties of kaolins depend on the internal structure of the particles that
constitute them. For this reason, unraveling the structural features from the micro to the …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) releasing materials are increasingly used in nanomedicines
due to their effectiveness against a broad spectrum of microbes. However, most ROS …

Kaolin has been intensively used as an industrial mineral, mainly in the paper industry, as
coating or filler material. In order to achieve the market requirements for this kind of use …

Cancrinite and sodalite are characterized by high capacity of adsorption due to its porous
structure. The aim of this work was to use kaolin from Borborema-Seridó/Brazil as a source …

Samples of Kaolin from different regions in Brazil were characterized by XRD, SEM and
chemical analysis. A chemical bleaching study with pH adjustment was accomplished with …

Kaolin is a rock composed mainly of kaolinite. It is used in many industrial segments, such
as paper and ceramics. However, for these uses it is necessary to submit the ore to …
