Kaolin Noodles in Ceramics
Kaolin Clay Noodles are refined, extruded forms of kaolin, offering consistent moisture and plasticity for easy processing in ceramic and tile manufacturing. Their four awesome properties are: ready-to-use form, predictable water content, high purity, and uniform particle distribution. They improve mixing efficiency and reduce preparation time significantly
- Ready-to-Use Plastic Form
- Consistent Water Content
- Dust-Free Handling
- Enhanced Particle Homogeneity
For Advanced Ceramic Try,
Our Kaolin Noodles
Our Kaolin Clay Noodles are an innovative, pre-conditioned form of high-purity kaolin clay. Extruded with controlled moisture content, they offer manufacturers a ready-to-use ingredient that significantly boosts efficiency, consistency, and process cleanliness in ceramic manufacturing.
- No Slurry Preparation: Our noodle form is supplied with optimal moisture, eliminating the lengthy process of slurring and aging required for dry powder. This immediate workability saves valuable production time and reduces energy consumption in your manufacturing cycle.
- Moisture Consistency: Each batch of noodles is extruded to ensure a highly standardized and predictable water content. This critical consistency minimizes variations in rheology and shrinkage, leading to tighter quality control and fewer rejected final products.
- Dust Control and Safety: The dense, moist nature of the noodles drastically reduces the amount of airborne dust generated during handling and mixing. This significantly improves factory air quality and worker health, promoting a safer and cleaner operational environment.
- Optimized Dispersion: The noodle structure readily breaks down and disperses uniformly when added to the mixer. This pre-conditioning ensures the kaolin integrates perfectly with other body components, resulting in a more homogenous green body structure.
- Strength Contribution: The refined quality and consistent particle distribution within the noodles lead to a dense packing structure. This ultimately contributes to a higher, more reliable green strength in the unfired ceramic piece, minimizing damage during handling.
- Reliable Purity: Our kaolin is sourced and processed to the highest standards, ensuring exceptional purity and low iron content. The noodle form guarantees that this high-quality material is delivered to your process without contamination.
