It is typically formed from volcanic ash and is known for its high water absorption capacity and swelling properties. Bentonite powder has various industrial applications, including as a drilling mud in the oil and gas industry, a binder in foundry molds, a clarifying agent in wine and beer production, and a component in cosmetics and skincare products.
