Bentonite and bentonite suspensions
Bentonite is a natural clay mineral and consists mostly of montmorillonite. This main ingredient is decisive for the physical properties of a bentonite suspension such as swelling susceptibility, card‐house structure and thixotropy, and also for the rheological properties of a bentonite suspension such as yield limit, viscosity and gel strength. The stability of a suspension means the maintenance of its properties over a longer time period. Bentonite is differentiated into natural bentonites, activated bentonites and bentonites with polymer additives.
