Versatile Agricultural Applications

Bentonite Roasted Granules are widely used in agriculture due to their ability to slowly release fertilizers and pesticides. Acting as effective carriers, they ensure nutrients are delivered steadily to crops, optimizing growth and minimizing environmental impact. Their swelling property enhances soil structure, benefiting yield.

Reliable Absorbent for Industrial Uses

Highly absorbent, these granules support various industrial applications including oil drilling and chemical spill management. Their layered structure allows for high cation exchange, making them suitable for absorbing liquids and controlling moisture levels in diverse settings.

Storage and Shelf Life

Stored under recommended conditionsdry and ventilatedBentonite Roasted Granules maintain their effectiveness for up to two years. Proper storage prevents moisture absorption, which is crucial for preserving their granular form and functional properties.

FAQs of Bentonite Roasted Granules:

Q: How should Bentonite Roasted Granules be stored to maximize shelf life?

A: Store the granules in a dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture. This helps maintain their granular structure and ensures up to two years of shelf life.

Q: What is the primary use of Bentonite Roasted Granules in agriculture?

A: They are primarily used as carriers for fertilizers and pesticides, enabling controlled release and enhanced nutrient delivery to crops.

Q: When is Bentonite Roasted Granules most effective for agricultural application?

A: They are most effective when incorporated into soil at the time of planting or during routine fertilization, ensuring optimal release of agrochemicals.

Q: Where else can Bentonite Roasted Granules be utilized besides agriculture?

A: Apart from agriculture, these granules are used in oil drilling as an absorbent and as a carrier in various industrial processes needing moisture control or chemical containment.

Q: What process makes Bentonite Roasted Granules suitable as a carrier for fertilizers and pesticides?

A: Due to their high cation exchange capacity and swelling absorbent qualities, they can hold and gradually release agrochemicals, supporting efficient delivery to plants.

Q: What benefits do Bentonite Roasted Granules offer compared to other carriers?

A: Their superior absorbency, inert taste, odorless nature, and ability to swell in water boost holding capacity and facilitate gradual nutrient release, improving soil health and plant growth.
