Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Kaolin for Paints & Coatings in paints & coatings applications

We offer hydrous engineered, calcined (single and bi-calcined), and specialty engineered kaolin grades, each formulated for specific performance in architectural, industrial, or specialty coatings.

Its ultrafine platy morphology spaces TiO₂ particles, enhances light scattering efficiency, and delivers superior gloss, sheen, and transparency in water-based and solvent-based gloss paints.

Thermal calcination creates modified particle structure with internal micro-porosity and increased hardness, boosting dry opacity, brightness, scrub resistance, and TiO₂ extension capability.

Its dual-stage bi-calcination creates a significantly harder silicate structure with mineralogical transformation, enabling paint films to withstand 345+ wet scrub cycles vs 275 for standard calcined clay.

Yes, our kaolin grades demonstrate excellent compatibility with alkyd, epoxy, polyester, styrene-acrylic, and polyurethane resin systems in both water-based and solvent-based formulations.
