General description

Bentonite is comprised primarily of the smectite group (montmorillonite) of clay minerals. It is widely used in various industrial applications such as clarification of edible and mineral oils, paints, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. It is also used as an adsorbent for the elimination of pollutants from wastewater.
The swelling property of bentonite is used to produce viscous water suspensions for bonding, plasticizing, and suspending applications. The presence of a large surface area of bentonite is due to the colloidal dispersion of the particles is the main reason for its application as an insecticide carrier, an emulsifier, and an emulsion stabilizer.

Application


  • Optimization of Cd (II) removal from aqueous solution by natural hydroxyapatite/bentonite composite using response surface methodology.: This study explores the use of a hydroxyapatite/bentonite composite for the efficient removal of cadmium ions from aqueous solutions, highlighting its potential application in environmental remediation (Desalegn et al., 2023).


  • Acid-activated Sodium Bentonite and Kaolin Clay: Comparative Study by Physicochemical Properties.: This research compares the physicochemical properties of acid-activated sodium bentonite and kaolin clay, focusing on their potential applications in various industrial processes and environmental treatments (Kumar & Lingfa, 2020).


  • Photochemical synthesis of silver nanoparticles on chitosans/montmorillonite nanocomposite films and antibacterial activity.: The research focuses on the synthesis of silver nanoparticles on chitosan/montmorillonite nanocomposite films and their enhanced antibacterial activity, suggesting potential applications in medical and environmental fields (Gabriel et al., 2017).
