Sepiolite(Cat No.:M137771) is a natural clay mineral composed of hydrated magnesium silicate. It has a fibrous morphology, with fine, needle-like crystals that form porous aggregates. Sepiolite is known for its high surface area and porosity, which give it unique adsorption and absorption properties. It is used in various industrial applications, including as a sorbent for liquids and gases, a thickening agent in paints and coatings, and a carrier for agricultural chemicals and animal feed additives. Sepiolite is also used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and environmental remediation due to its non-toxic nature and ability to absorb a wide range of substances.
