Kaolin

Unleashing the Potential of Premium Kaolin Solutions.
The Laira Group is a major provider of industrial minerals, including kaolin, known for its high-quality products and reliable supply. Kaolin, also known as china clay, is a clay mineral with a unique chemical composition of Al2Si2O5(OH)4. It is a layered silicate mineral, consisting of silica and alumina sheets. The name "kaolin" originated from the hill in China where it was traditionally mined.
The Laira Group is committed to delivering superior kaolin products, meeting the diverse needs of our customers in various industries with our exceptional technical specifications and consistent quality.
We supply kaolin in various sizes, ranging from the finest particles to different granular forms. Our kaolin stands out from other clays due to its fine particle size and pure coloring. It is widely used in industries such as paint, ceramics, vitrified tile manufacturing, paper, fiberglass, and refractories.

KCC

KCC (Kaolin Clay), one of our featured products, exhibits excellent properties. It offers good plasticity, reduces water absorption, and has high refractory characteristics. KCC is stable at high temperatures and enables control over gloss and viscosity. It improves film strength, increases abrasion resistance, and enhances inter-coat adhesion, reinforcing and toughening coating systems.

KCC-Z

KCC-Z (Zero-Sodium Kaolin Clay) is a specialized variant that undergoes a purification process to remove sodium compounds. This low-sodium kaolin is suitable for applications where sodium interference must be minimized, such as in pharmaceutical formulations or specific industrial processes.

KCR

KCR (Kaolin Clay Rocks) refers to kaolin deposits mined as solid rocks. These rocks contain high concentrations of kaolin and are processed to extract the clay for various applications. KCR is particularly favored in ceramics, refractories, and high-temperature applications due to its exceptional thermal stability and refractory properties.

KCP2

KCP2 (Kaolin Clay Prills 2mm) is a granular form of kaolin clay shaped into small spherical pellets. These prills offer enhanced handling and dispersion properties, making them ideal for applications requiring controlled particle size, such as paint manufacturing. KCP2 contributes to improved film strength, increased abrasion resistance, and improved adhesion between coating layers.
