It is typically formed from the alteration of volcanic ash in the presence of water.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Composition:<\/strong> Bentonite is mainly made up of montmorillonite clay, which is a mineral rich in silicates. It also contains other minerals such as feldspar, quartz, and mica in smaller quantities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Color:<\/strong> Bentonite can range in color from white to gray, yellow, green, or brown, depending on its mineral content.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Texture:<\/strong> It has a soft, fine texture that makes it sticky and smooth when wet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Properties:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>High absorbent capacity<\/li>\n<li>Swells when wet<\/li>\n<li>Absorbs water and organic substances easily<\/li>\n<li>It forms a gel-like substance when mixed with water.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bentonite API 13A is a pure Sodium based Bentonite. It is processed from selected ore<br \/>\nwith high montmorollinite content.<\/p>\n<p>Bentonite API 13A contains more than 85% smeclite, the active clay content as<br \/>\ndetermined by colloid and x-ray diffraction.<\/p>\n<p>Bentonite API 13A is used as a viscosifier and fluid loss reducing agent. It is most<br \/>\neffective in fresh water. Prehydrated BENTONITE API 13A can be used in brakish and<br \/>\nsalt water.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h4><strong>Download Catalogue<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/COA-Bentonite_BTTCO-24-25.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COA Catalogue<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/MSDS-BENTONITE-BTTCO-24-25-Done.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MSDS Catalogue<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/TDS-Bentonite-API-13-A-BTTCO-24-25.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TDS Catalogue<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":587,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[38,37,29,30,32,51,48,47],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-586","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-by-applications","7":"product_cat-by-industry","8":"product_cat-constructions","9":"product_cat-cosmetics","10":"product_cat-drilling-mining","11":"product_cat-drilling-mining-by-applications","12":"product_cat-hair-and-skin-care","13":"product_cat-waterproofing-and-sealing","15":"first","16":"instock","17":"shipping-taxable","18":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/586","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=586"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/587"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=586"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=586"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=586"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/topazinfotech.in\/bttcooverseas\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=586"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
