    摘要: The Rio Capim Kaolin deposit contains a lower bed of soft kaolin clay that averages 10 meters thick, and an upper bed of “hard” kaolin (“RCC hard kaolin”) that may be as thick as 6 to 8 meters. Due to their high impurity content fine particle size, cementetious nature, and high degree of particle aggregation, hard kaolins are difficult to process. Disclosed herein are compositions comprising kaolin having a particle size distribution such that at least about 90% of the kaolin has a particle size of less than 1 micron and a GE brightness of at least about 91, where the kaolin may be derived from a crude kaolin having a Fe2O3 content of at least about 1.0% by weight, and optionally comprises titania in an amount of at least about 1.5% by weight. Also disclosed herein are methods of refining the hard kaolins, such as RCC hard kaolins, by dispersing the kaolin with at least one anionic organic dispersant and at least one inorganic dispersant. Also disclosed are compositions comprising an aqueous kaolin slurry comprising the hard kaolin, such as an RCC hard kaolin, at least one anionic organic dispersant, and at least one inorganic dispersant. Also disclosed are products containing the refined kaolin, such as paints, paper coatings, and plastics.

    摘要: A method of enhancing the brightness and increasing the yield of a kaolin clay by optimizing the removal of the titania and mica impurities in the clay and the amount of clay remaining in the slurry is disclosed. The method is a selective flocculation process wherein the clay is blunged, dispersed, and conditioned before flocculation. In the flocculation step, a high molecular weight anionic polymer and a low molecular weight anionic polymer, such as sodium polyacrylate, are added to the slurry after the conditioning process, whereby the titania-mica enriched flocs are separated from the suspension which is enriched with kaolin. This final kaolin product has titania levels ranging from 0.1% to 0.5%, a reduced mica level, a high usable product yield, and a brightness greater than 89.5 and at least 91.5.

    摘要: A paper coating pigment manufactured from kaolin crude containing minor amounts of minerals is used in lightweight coated and ultra-lightweight coated applications. The pigments comprise a phyllosilicate assemblage of minerals that yield a final pigment MgO content ranging between 0.04 to 0.3 weight percent and a K2O content ranging between 0.12 and 0.8 weight percent based on the dry weight of the kaolin crude. The mica in the pigment product is 1.0% to 6.7% by weight, and smectite is 1.2% to 9.1% by weight of the kaolin. The presence of these weight percentages can be identified by a shape factor of 15 or greater. The viscous clay content of the feed to produce the pigment product is between 70 and 100 weight percent based on the dry weight of the kaolin clay. The pigment has a shape factor ranging between 35 and 60 or greater, and greater than 80% by weight of the particle are less than 2 microns, and greater than 12% are less than 0.25 microns.
