Paints and Coatings

Kaolin is a key ingredient in paints and coatings due to its ability to enhance opacity, durability, and smoothness. It acts as a rheological modifier, improving the viscosity and application properties of paint. Kaolin also increases the scratch resistance and weatherability of coatings, making them more durable and long-lasting. Depends on the paint application, it play role as extender, Opacifier agent or Pigment.
