Résumé : |
The author explores how a small quaternary treatment allows hectorite to bring multiple benefits to the oil phase of a formulation while remaining up to 99% naturally-derived.
Hectorite clay, named after the originating area in a location near Hector, California, is an exceptionally pure, non-toxic, nonbioaccumulating, three-layer clay of the smectite family. It is sourced from the world’s purest hectorite mine, near Newberry Springs, California. Â
The hectorite clay was created from volcanic ash by hydrothermal means. The salt beds found in this area in combination with hot springs yielded a unique clay mineral structure that is different to other smectite clays.
The extremely efficient swelling capability and network stability of hectorite is due to the uniform charge density distribution, as the clay was built from a quick volcanic eruption. Bentonite, on the other hand, is built from a longer-lasting weathering process with less uniform charge density distribution.Â
The hectorite clay ore is selectively mined using open-pit mining operations, and the wet processing removes impurities to create different grades of hectorite clay. The platelets are remarkably uniform with respect to elemental composition, charge density distribution and charge location.Â
The hydrothermal conditions created platelets with a thin shape, which results in a favourable edge-to-face surface ratio. Pure hectorite clay is a 100% natural ingredient according to ISO 16128 and complies with the COSMOS standard. Â
A small quaternary treatment allows hectorite to bring multiple benefits to the oil phase of a formulation while remaining up to 99% naturally derived according to the ISO 16128 standard. |
