Introduction
Kaolin is one of the most important of the industrial minerals and finds widespread applications as a filler and coater in the paper industry and, to a lesser extent, as a filler and extender in the production of rubber, plastic, and paint. It is of paramount importance as a raw material for ceramics of all kinds, and is also used in the manufacture of structural clay products. Various kaolinitic clays are highly refractory.
