Notes

See HPM-20 for microfine version of this.

A selectively mined and processed, high quality sodium bentonite.
It is used for suspending, emulsifying, and as a binding agent for industrial products where a dry 200 mesh particle size is required. It contains small portions of feldspar, calcite and quartz.
Moisture is 12% as shipped.
Dry PSD: Minimum 65% finer that 200 mesh (74 microns)
Wet PSD: Minimum 94% finer that 200 mesh (74 microns)
Minimum 92% finer than 325 mesh (44 microns)
pH: 2% solids: 8.5-10.5

Viscosity: 8-30 cps @ 6.25% solids
