What is Bentonite?

Bentonite is a kind of clay that is mostly made up of the mineral montmorillonite, which is abundant in hydrated aluminum silicates. It originates from layers of volcanic ash that have seen considerable weathering over time. Bentonite, a unique material with several uses in industry, is used to make foundry sands, drilling muds, and cat litter. It can absorb huge amounts of water and expand to many times its original volume.

Furthermore, its capacity to combine water to produce a gel-like material renders it advantageous in environmental and geotechnical engineering contexts to seal and line ponds, landfills, and wastewater containment systems.
