Mineral of laminated structure, very high brightness, and coating power. It is a unique and proven industrial mineral, because it also remains chemically inert over a relatively broad pH range. In addition, kaolin is soft, non-abrasive and conducts heat and electricity only to a minor degree. On account of the mineralogical individuality of the different deposits, the kaolins of the company Amberger Kaolinwerke in particular are used with their very special properties in many applications. Used in the paint and varnish, ceramics, porcelain, paper, rubber, and pharmaceutical industry.
