Application
Kaolinite can be used:
- In the preparation of of polysialate polymers.
- To prepare mullite composites by sintering kaolinite and alumina.
- To synthesize microporous materials such as zeolite Linde Type A (LTA) and kaoline based silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) molecular sieves.
- In the synthesis of terbium pyridine-picolinate grafted kaoline, as a luminescent hybrid material.
- As a filler and a coating pigment in the paper industry.
