White clay used as an additive and filler in paper and coating made up chiefly of minerals of the kaolinite type.
A white clay derived from rock composed chiefly of feldspar. The main chemical constituent is hydrous aluminium silicate.
Aids in the covering ability of face powder and in absorbing oil. Aluminum silicate that is a white or yellowish, white mass or powder, insoluble in water and rendered harmless to the skin. Used in face masques, foundation and bath powders.
most abundant natural mineral with a detoxifying and purifying effect on the skin.
This is the name given to white-firing China clay used for making porcelain. The name derives from that of the Gaoling hills, from where the China clay used at the Jingdezhen kilns was obtained.
(Fine, natural clay from Mt. Kaolin in China) Deep cleanses and purifies.
The Chinese name for the fine white clay used in making porcelain.
Kaolin is an absorptive, pure type of clay. Because of its high moisture absorption capacity and its excellent grease resisting properties it is used in face powders, body powders and deodorants.
China clay, rich in the mineral kaolinite and relatively aplastic. Kaolins are white-firing clays low in iron oxides and fluxes such as alkalis and lime. Primary kaolins are found in the position where they were formed from the original igneous rock; the kaolins of both Southern China (Jingdezhen) and Cornwall are of this type. Secondary kaolins, including the northern Chinese clays, are sedimentary clays which have been transported over long distances (see boxes p.184, 196, 203). Kaolins are essential for the production of fine porcelain.
a fine usually white clay formed by the weathering of aluminous minerals (as feldspar); used in ceramics and as an absorbent and as a filler (e.g., in paper)
A natural clay that absorbs unwanted oils and other impurities from skin.
Naturally occurring aluminum silicate. Originally from Mt. Kaolin in China. It is utilized in skin preparations for its drawing effects upon the skin and for its ability to absorb oil and sweat secreted by the skin. It is extremely high in silica, oxygen, sulfur and minerals and acts as an excellent hair fortifier and strengthener.
Clay used to absorb oils.
A white clay powder used to absorb excess oil secreted by the skin.
A fine clay that Engelhard beneficiates into high-quality, performance coating pigments and fillers for paper; pigment extenders for plastics, coatings, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics; crop protectants, and precursors and substrates for adsorbents and chemical, environmental and petroleum catalysts.
A fine-grained white clay that is a major component of porcelain.
The most widely used industrial type of clay (aluminum silicate).
Very fine white clay with drawing and tightening properties that gently absorbs surface oil secreted by the skin. It can help stimulate circulation deep into the capillaries.
Also known as china clay. A very fine, white clay created by the decomposition of feldspar under the natural geologic forces of the earth.
a major component of many mineral tailings. It is found in bauxite and ends up as DSP (desilication product) in the bauxite residue of the Bayer process. Kaolin is composed mainly of the mineral kaolinite (Al Si 10(OH)).
A pure, delicate, white-powdered clay that absorbs oil and water. Firms the skin by removing excess oil.
Natural Clay. Finely textured, light colored clay. Pink, green and white clays are all members of kaolin family. Its excellent absorbent, tightening and toning properties make it valuable for face masks.
Fine white feldspathic clay from the primary type.See residual clays.
china clay mineral-derived Kaolin is a white, powdery clay that can absorb high quantities of moisture. Used in our Clay Mask and exfoliating products, kaolin helps draw impurities from the skin to provide a deep-cleansing and purifying action.
A china clay in its purest form, primary clay.
A fine white clay, which is used to make porcelain, as a file in paper, textile, rubber, etc. and in the medical treatment of diarrhea.
A type of clay from which kaolinite is extracted. Also called "china clay". Engelhard has an abundant reserve of kaolin in central Georgia, U.S.A., located close to its manufacturing facilities, and takes precautions to assure that its mines are reclaimed in an environmentally sound manner.
China clay - The purest clay containing very little iron and therefore fires white. It has little plasticity and is high in alumina. Name derived from kaolin, a high ridge where the white firing clay was first discovered in China.
A fine clay used in the coating of paper and board. Also known as China clay
this very fine, pure, white-firing natural clay is used to make porcelain paste. Kaolin forms when the mineral feldspar decays, and is sometimes called "China clay" because of its prevalence in China.
This natural clay has excellent absorption abilities, drawing out and absorbing excess oils and impurities from the skin.
Natural claylike mineral (silicate of aluminum) that is used in cosmetics for its absorbent properties to refine skin.
A fine white granite based clay sometimes referred to a china clay.
A clay powder used for its oil absorbing properties. Refines pores and helps clear up breakouts.
a rock composed essentially of clay minerals of the kaolinite group, most commonly kaolinite. High purity deposits of this mineral are valuable for making quality ceramic products.
Another name for china clay.
Clay from Southeast China used to absorb the body's impurities. Considered for thousands of years as an excellent body cleanser.
very fine, soft white clay.
(Pronunciation: "COW-lin") A very pure white clay that is one of the main ingredients in porcelain.
also called China Clay, fine clay that's white in color. Kaolin is often used in facial masks and powders that absorb oil.
Locally sourced. Absorbs excess oil and draws out impurities for improved skin texture and colour.
Commonly used in foundations, face powders and dusting powders. Kaolin is a fine white clay often associated with bauxite the aluminium ore, and is used in making fine porcelain. Like bentonite, kaolin smothers the skin and weakens the structure.
China clay. A white clay made from pegmatite found in Cornwall.
a fine white clay consisting of kaolinite, used especially in making ceramics. [AHDOS
White clay mass primarily composed of the clay mineral, kaolinite. In refined form, it is used as a coating filler, and as an opacifying agent for papermaking. Its important properties are plasticity when wet and hardening when baked or fired. Kaolin retains its whiteness after firing.
