Perlite Nanoclay Powder (Purity: >99%, APS: 80-100nm)

Perlite Nanoclay Powder

Perlite Nanoclay Powder is a nano-sized form of perlite, a naturally occurring volcanic glass. Perlite is traditionally used for its lightweight, insulating, and porous properties. When transformed into the nano-scale, perlite exhibits enhanced characteristics, particularly in terms of surface area, reactivity, and interaction with other materials. At the nanometer scale, perlite’s unique physical properties are amplified, allowing it to be utilized in a broad range of advanced applications across industries such as construction, agriculture, environmental engineering, polymers, and pharmaceuticals.

Properties

High Surface Area

Nano-Scale Surface Area:
When perlite is processed to nanometer size, its surface area increases dramatically. A higher surface area-to-volume ratio allows the powder to interact more effectively with other materials, making it an ideal filler, additive, or carrier material in various formulations.

Increased Reactivity:
The larger surface area at the nanoscale leads to increased chemical reactivity. This makes Perlite Nanoclay Powder useful in applications such as adsorption, catalysis, and chemical reinforcement in polymers, paints, coatings, and even soil treatments.

conductivity, making it useful in insulating building materials, energy-efficient products, and protective coatings for high-temperature environments.

Porosity

Increased Porosity:
The nano-structural form of perlite enhances its porosity, which plays a key role in various applications like soil conditioning, water filtration, oil absorption, and catalysis. This increase in pores per unit volume allows for greater absorption and storage capacity, especially for liquid or gas adsorption.

High Absorbency:
Due to its porous nature, Perlite Nanoclay Powder can absorb oils, water, and other chemicals. This is particularly valuable in environmental applications, such as oil spill remediation and pollution cleanup, where the powder can absorb contaminants and help purify water or soil.

Chemical Stability

Inert and Non-reactive:
Perlite, even in its nanoclay powder form, remains chemically stable and inert. This makes it suitable for use in harsh environments where it must remain non-reactive to acids, bases, and other chemicals. It is often used as a non-toxic and environmentally friendly filler material in various industrial applications.

pH Stability:
Perlite Nanoclay Powder maintains pH stability and is compatible with a wide range of formulations, including alkaline and acidic environments. This makes it a valuable material in agricultural, chemical, and industrial applications where pH consistency is important.
