Agalmatolite

Agalmatolite is a mineral of the silicate family, composed essentially by aluminum silicate, chemically inert, extracted from mines and refined in several granulometric ranges according to the desired application. It has a lamellar crystalline form. 

Main Applications

Paint applications: a load that is widely used in several segments. Its lamellar characteristic provides a uniform surface finish, good coverage, and improves resistance to washability (or abrasion test). Its morphology gives the Agalmatolite a higher resistance to sedimentation, ensuring better stability to the system, etc. 

Application in plastics: widely used in thermoplastic resins as filler load, improving mechanical properties by increasing strength and hardness, in the manufacture of masterbatches, it acts as a dispersant of pigments of high dyeing power, especially organic pigments, facilitating the pigmentation of virgin resins.  

General applications: used as vehicles for active liquids (insecticides and others), refractory molds, friction materials, plastics, rubbers (as filler and lubricant/anti-adhesive), fiberglass, glues, adhesives, in the manufacture of soaps, electrical insulators, sealant, primer, etc.
