We Are TalcAsia

Moler is a unique mixture of diatom shells and smectite clay used as an absorption agent in an unlimited array of applications ranging from cat litter to soil amendment to steel making.

Sponge-like absorption properties

Moler is rock comprising a unique combination of diatoms and clay, deposited 14 million years ago off the northwestern coast of Denmark and now located on the islands of Fur, Mors and Nordsalling. It typically comprises two-thirds diatom algae shells and one-third smectite clay. Typical moler contains over a hundred different diatoms, which are essentially round, triangular and ball-shaped. This natural product has the unique ability to absorb, retain and insulate many liquids, but especially oils and chemicals. It is perfect for use as an absorbent for treating spillages.

Due to its highly porous structure and the swelling properties of smectite, moler is capable of absorbing liquids like a dry sponge and is an excellent insulating material. This lightweight, heat-resistant material is used in a wide variety of industries including industrial spill and emissions control, water filtration, agriculture, horticulture, cat litter, steelmaking and construction.

Moler is a mixture of montmorillonite clay and diatomite with the chemical formula of montmorillonite being (Na,Ca)_0,3(Al,Mg)₂Si₄O₁₀(OH)₂•n (H₂O)
