KAOLIN LUMPS
Kaolin clay, often referred to as China Clay, is a naturally occurring soft white clay rich in kaolinite. While it is widely used in its powdered form, kaolin clay lumps are gaining increased interest in various industries for their purity, versatility, and performance benefits.
🔹 What Are Kaolin Clay Lumps?
Kaolin clay lumps are unprocessed or semi-processed chunks of kaolin directly extracted from natural deposits. These lumps are typically off-white to light grey in color and are known for their high alumina and low iron content, making them ideal for industries that demand purity and high whiteness.
🔹 Key Properties of Kaolin Clay Lumps:
High purity and brightness
Excellent plasticity
Low iron and titanium content
Chemical and thermal stability
Easy to crush and process into powder
Industrial Applications:
1. Ceramics & Porcelain
Kaolin clay lumps are used as a primary raw material in the manufacture of ceramic tiles, sanitaryware, and porcelain due to their fine texture and whiteness.
2. Paints & Coatings
Crushed kaolin lumps enhance opacity and brightness in paints while improving smoothness and coverage.
3. Paper Industry
After processing, kaolin improves gloss, printability, and brightness in coated papers.
4. Rubber & Plastics
Kaolin acts as a filler to reinforce strength and reduce production costs.
5. Cosmetics & Personal Care
Purified kaolin clay lumps are used in facial masks, powders, and scrubs for their absorbent and skin-soothing properties.

When To Use Garlic Powder Vs. Granulated Garlic
Kaolin clay lumps are naturally occurring chunks of raw kaolinite-rich clay. Unlike the finely milled kaolin powder used in many applications, kaolin lumps are unprocessed or semi-processed, offering greater purity and flexibility in custom preparation. They are preferred in industries where bulk handling, cost-efficiency, and raw purity are critical.
