Today, with the concept of green environmental protection deeply rooted in people's hearts, diatomaceous earth, as a natural multi-functional material, is becoming a popular choice in industry, construction, home and other fields. Dongguan Jinpai Industry and Trade Co., Ltd. has been deeply engaged in diatomaceous earth research and development, production and customization services for more than ten years, and is committed to providing customers with high-quality diatomaceous earth solutions.
This article will give you an in-depth understanding of the composition characteristics of diatomaceous earth, its core advantages and its wide range of applications.
1. Composition and natural advantages of diatomite
Diatomaceous earth is a natural mineral formed by the deposition of ancient diatom remains, and its composition is mainly silicon dioxide (SiO₂) (content of 80%-95%), and contains a small amount of alumina, iron oxide and organic matter.
This unique biogenic structure gives it three core advantages:
1. Porous honeycomb structure
The diatomite interior is densely covered with nano-scale micropores, the porosity is as high as 80%-90%, and the specific surface area can reach 50-100㎡/g.
This structure makes it have excellent physical adsorption capacity, can quickly absorb moisture, odor and harmful gases, is a natural "air purifier".
2. Strong chemical stability
The main component is inorganic silica, high temperature resistance (melting point above 1650℃), acid and alkali corrosion resistance, can still maintain stable performance in complex environment, long service life.
3. Ecological security
Diatomaceous earth does not contain heavy metals, formaldehyde and other harmful substances, certified by international authoritative testing bodies, zero harm to the human body and the environment, in line with the EU RoHS, REACH and other environmental standards.
Second, diatomite diversified application areas
With the dual advantages of composition and structure, diatomaceous earth has shown irreplaceable value in many industries.
Dongguan Jinpai Industry and Trade Co., Ltd. helps customers to maximize the utilization of material properties through fine processing and customized services.
1. Environmental protection building materials field
• Wall material: diatom mud coating can adjust indoor humidity (adsorption capacity of more than 300g/㎡), decompose formaldehyde (purification efficiency > 90%), create a "breathing" healthy home.
• Floor tile/panel additives: Improve the anti-fungal properties of building materials and reduce building maintenance costs.
2. Industrial filtration and catalysis
• Filter aid: food grade diatomaceous earth is used for fine filtration of beer and juice, the aperture is controllable (1-100 microns), and the impurity retention efficiency is as high as 99.9%.
• Catalyst carrier: microporous structure supported precious metal catalyst, widely used in petrochemical, tail gas treatment and other fields.
3. Agriculture and environmental governance
• Soil amendments: Regulate soil permeability, slow the release of fertilizer nutrients, reduce crop diseases.
• Sewage treatment: adsorption of heavy metal ions (such as lead, cadmium) and organic pollutants, the treatment cost is reduced by 40% compared with activated carbon.
4. Daily chemical and medical care
• Toothpaste/mask filler: Gently rub to exfoliate, absorb skin oil, safe and skin-friendly.
• Drug carrier: as a sustained-release agent to enhance the durability of the drug effect and reduce the frequency of medication.
