A sheer wonder of chemistry
Sometimes, chemistry and the wonders that it can do with natural elements is nothing short or magic. And it’s nothing short of wonderful, knowing about outlandish (read: cool) things that exist on this planet. Different metals, non-metals, metals that can flow, and what not, Mother Earth’s womb is almost akin to Mary poppins bag!
You thought you knew all the fascinating things? Think again.
Enter, Zeolites.
Have you ever heard a hard piece of rock that could boil off? A zeolite is basically that and no, it does not exist in Hogwarts.
They occur in combinations of crystalline structures and have different elements, (metals, alkaline Earth metals) trapped in them in combination with water and oxygen. Till date, only 4a zeolite is known to humans whose full potential has not been tapped into.
What makes them special?
Zeolites are extremely stable to temperature and pressure changes, and are safe to human skin. Apart from this, the structure of this element is special that it can trap in itself many other elements, just like water and oxygen are trapped.
That is why artificial zeolites are made these days that are customized by cation exchange and are even stable. They make an integral component of water softening plants and find application in the dishwasher and detergent manufacturing industries.
The zeolite 4a
The A type of zeolites are those that are freely used in the product of detergents and dishwashers we use in our homes. In these, the sodium is removed from the cavities (natural form) and it is replaced with calcium.
They are comparatively more environment-friendly and non-toxic as they do not cause eutrophication in water. The exclusive property of the zeolite 4a is that it is placed well high when it comes to adsorption levels and liquid carrying capacity.
The production and manufacturing of zeolite, especially the zeolite 4a require a state of the art facility, and that is JUST what Gujarat Credo Mineral Industries Ltd. is focused on providing.
One of the leading zeolite manufacturers in the race amongst the nation’s best, GCMIL guarantees you delivery of quality product under stipulated time.
