Natural Micronized Barytes Powder
Whitegold Minerals is one of the prominent importers of Micronized Barytes Powder (Barium Sulphate Powder)
Barium Sulphate is made from high-quality barite powder. The powder has high purity, narrow particle size and even distribution, low oil absorption, and good leveling. It has excellent gloss retention and a similar refractive index to organic resin. Also, it has excellent resistance to chemicals and weather.
We offer Micronized Calcium Carbonate Powder up to average particle size of 1 microns & top-cut of 3.5 microns.
Applications of Natural Barytes Powder
Barytes powder, also known as barium sulfate, is a naturally occurring mineral that has a wide range of industrial applications. Some of the most common uses include:
- Drilling fluids: Barytes powder is used as a weighting agent in drilling fluids to increase the density of the fluid. This helps to maintain well control during drilling operations, particularly in high-pressure or high-temperature environments.
- Pigment: Barytes powder is used as a white pigment in a variety of industrial and consumer products, including paint, rubber, and plastic.
- Radiation shielding: Barytes powder is used as a radiation shielding material in medical imaging equipment, nuclear power plants, and other applications where radiation protection is needed.
- Paper and Pulp: Barytes powder is used as a filler in paper and pulp industry to improve the brightness and smoothness of the paper.
- Ceramics: Barytes powder is used as a raw material in the production of ceramics and glass.
- Pharmaceuticals and cosmetics: Barytes powder is used as an inactive ingredient in the manufacturing of some pharmaceuticals and cosmetics products.
- Oil and Gas: Barytes powder is used as a weighting agent in drilling muds to increase the density of the fluid, providing a better seal for the well.
- Powder coatings: Barytes powder is used as an extender pigment in powder coating formulations to improve the gloss, smoothness and weather resistance of the coatings.
- Cosmetics: Barytes powder is used as a natural and inert powder that is used as a thickener, whitening agent, and texture-enhancing ingredient in cosmetics, lotions, and other personal care products.
Overall, Barytes powder has a wide range of applications in various industries, due to its high density, whiteness, and chemical stability, making it an ideal additive in multiple products.
