Construction

Kaolin is utilized in the construction sector as a functional filler in formulations for plaster, concrete, and cement. It increases the mechanical properties, decreases shrinkage, and improves workability of building materials. A common pozzolanic ingredient in high-performance concrete is kaolin-based Metakaolin, which is a calcined form of kaolin. Concrete structures gain strength, durability, and resistance to chemical attacks as a result of its reaction with calcium hydroxide to create additional cementitious compounds in cement.
