Kaolin types are classified into three categories: CALCINED KAOLIN, HYDROUS KAOLIN & SPECIALITY KAOLIN

Calcined Kaolin

Calcined Kaolin is produced by high-temperature calcination, giving it exceptional whiteness, opacity, and thermal stability. It is widely used in paints & coatings, plastics & polymers, paper, and rubber to improve brightness, gloss, and durability.

Hydrous Kaolin

Hydrous Kaolin, refined through levigation and advanced processing, offers fine particle size, smoothness, and controlled rheology. It is the most versatile grade of Kaolin, used in paints & coatings, ceramics, adhesives & sealants and paper, etc.

Speciality Kaolin

Speciality Kaolin grades are engineered for high-value applications requiring specific chemical, physical, and functional properties. It helps in the ink industry for smoothness & controlled absorption. Also used in cosmetics & high-end coatings for brightness & smooth film formation.
