Bentonite and bentonite suspensions

Bentonite is a natural clay mineral and consists mostly of montmorillonite. This main ingredient is decisive for the physical properties of a bentonite suspension such as swelling susceptibility, card-house structure and thixotropy, and also for the rheological properties of a bentonite suspension such as yield limit, viscosity and gel strength.

Bentonite is a fine-particle clay that is often used as a suspension agent in glazes. Bentonite has colloidal properties, which means the particles are so small and light that they disperse in water and remain in suspension rather than settle out. Clays like kaolin and ball clay are also suspension agents and are commonly found in glaze recipes.
