Properties: Inert, releases water of hydration at 530°C. Most kaolin clays have medium bulk density, low abrasion, and compatibility with majority of toxicants. Some grades have unusually fine particle size, high adsorption, and suspension properties. Grindability is good if the a.i. is a high melting-point solid and other characteristics include: oil adsorption, 30-35 grams/100 grams oil; bulk density, 20-40 pounds/cubic foot; and pH, 5-6.
