Characterization of South African Bentonite and Kaolin Clays
The present study aimed to investigate the mineralogical and morphological properties of two South African clays, namely bentonite and kaolin. These clays are mined in specific regions of the country but have not been fully characterized in terms of their properties for potential application in a number of industries. Bentonite was found to …

The mold consists of silica sand, coal, binder (bentonite) and moisture (Cruz et al., 2009). Binder is a compound that imparts strength to the mold by adhering to sand grains and bonding them together. The surface of bentonite binder is ionic, which in the presence of water, helps in the creation of a sticky coating on the surface of sand grains.
