After the addition of this product in ceramic production, the plasticity and strength of the embryo or glaze are increased, which increases the lubrication effect and is beneficial for ball milling. In addition, the suspension and stability are greatly enhanced.

Bentonite is used as a plastic filler in ceramics, especially in products that require high whiteness after sintering. Its rheological and expandable properties enable ceramic plaster to have plasticity and increase strength, while stabilizing the suspension of water in the paste. At the same time, its dry adhesion provides a high bonding strength and bending resistance for the final product after calcination. In ceramic glazes, bentonite is also used as a plasticizer and thickener to provide strength, plasticity, and high adhesion for glazes and supports.
