DOLOMITE
Dolomite and Limestone are very similar to each other in their chemical compositions and also applications, but Dolomite has more Magnesium Carbonate in its compounds. Although Dolomite plays a fundamental role in Iron and Steel industries as a flux or sintering agent, having the more MgO content can lead to some particular advantages for Dolomite like using as a fertilizer, a feed additive for livestock, and an ingredient in the production of glass, ceramic, and bricks.
Dolomite: Dolomitic Limestone (Dolostone)
Dolomite has further prevalent names like Dolostone, Dolomite Rock, and Dolomitic Limestone (due to the many similarities to Limestone.
As mentioned above, Dolomitic Limestone is composed mostly of Calsium and Magnesium , and actually, these are the main elements in its compounds.
We, Micro Trading , are capable of supplying high-quality Dolomite for our esteemed customers, which the specification of our Dolomite with high CaO and MgO content offered on the product page for your kind consideration.
Its whiteness and purity are two important factors that make it a raw material for the paint industry. Further, its hardness and density makes dolomite powder a vital ingredient in the construction industry.
Dolomite is the second most abundantly found carbonate mineral. It exists as the primary component of sedimentary and metamorphic rock. It is also commonly found in hydrothermal deposits.
Dolomite is the primary ore for magnesium metal and is quarried for building material, road stone, or refractory brick production.
DOLOMITE POWDER
Dolomite is common in association with limestones and evaporates, still, it’s less abundant than limestone and only set up in Cenozoic gemstone beds. Before the lithification process, dolomite was generated as a magnesium volition for limestone or lime slush. Dolomitization is the geological process of converting calcite to dolomite, and any intermediate result is known as Dolomite limestone. Dolomite is resistant to corrosion and can be used to circumscribe or unhinge bedded layers. Indeed though it’s lower inseparable in unsound acidic groundwater, it can develop result functions over time and operate as a storehouse for oil painting and natural gas. We, Zillion Sawa Minerals are Dolomite Suppliers in India furnishing high- quality Dolomite to our valued guests, as seen by the specification of our Dolomite with high CaO and MgO content handed on the product runner for your consideration.
As far as raw material is concerned the Ceramic assiduity’s primary component is humus complexion. still, Potash Feldspar is second most important material which is used by ceramic assiduity. In order to increase strength, durability, and continuity of penstocks the K- Feldspar is extensively used by ceramic assiduity. The physical parcels, especially the melting point of Potash feldspar make it an egregious choice in both body and glaze medication. It’s used as a liquefying agent to form a glassy phase at low temperatures and as a source of Alkali and Alumina in glazes medication. Potash Feldspar melt gradually over a range of temperatures and it gives the occasion of different modulations. As a leading potash feldspar supplier, we’ve been supplying to numerous domestic and transnational ceramic companies. To know more about operations in ceramics you can read our blog posts.
