Calcined Kaolin is a high-brightness aluminum silicate material produced by calcining selected hydrous kaolin under controlled high-temperature conditions. After calcination, it exhibits excellent whiteness, improved opacity, enhanced chemical inertness, and reduced impurities, making it ideal for premium industrial applications.

Its optimized particle size distribution and reduced bound water significantly improve performance in coatings, papermaking, refractory formulations, and polymer compounds.
