What is Brightosil?

BRIGHTOSIL is a naturally occurring unique natural blend of corpuscular silicate and lamellar kaolinite. As a result of natural mineralogical formation, the mineral exhibits unique particle shape which is round as well as lamellar both, which is impossible to separate by chemical or physical methods.

The mineral is naturally low in LOI and moisture content and thereby the process of heat treatment or calcination is not required to enhance its mineralogical behaviour. Leaves lower carbon footprint.

The mineral raw material is subjected to purification / sorting, crushing, micronization and double classification for achieving a whiter and finer product which is very much sought in various Industrial applications.
