I-Diatomite (i-diatomaceous earth) lilitye elithambileyo nelikhaphukhaphu le-siliceous sedimentary elenziwe ngamasalela eefosili ze-diatoms zamandulo zasemanzini—i-algae eneseli enye eneqokobhe le-silica.i-silica engeyiyo ikristale (i-SiO₂, 80%–90%), ene-alumina encinci, i-iron oxide, kunye nezinto eziphilayo, inesakhiwo esikhethekileyo se-microporous, i-porosity ephezulu (ukuya kuthi ga kwi-90%), indawo enkulu yomphezulu othile, amandla okufunxa aqinileyo, ukungangeni kweekhemikhali, kunye nokumelana nobushushu. Njengeminerali engenabungozi, enobuhlobo nendalo, isetyenziswa kakhulu ekuhluzeni ukutya, ekunyangweni kwamanzi, ekukhuselweni kwendalo, ekwakheni, nakwizizalisi zemizi-mveliso.

I-diatomite eluhlaza icutshungulwa ngokutyumza, ukomisa, ukugaywa, kunye nokucocwa (ukuhlamba, ukwahlulwa ngemagnethi, ukunyibilikisa i-calcination) ukususa ukungcola kodongwe, i-quartz, kunye nesinyithi.I-SiO₂ ≥85%, ubumhlophe ≥85%, i-Fe₂O₃ ephantsi (<1.5%), kunye nobukhulu beesuntswana ezilawulwayo (10–200 μm), ukuqinisekisa ukusebenza okuzinzileyo ekuhluzeni, ekufakweni kwamanzi, nasekuzaliseni okusebenzayo.

Ii-micropores ezifanayo zeDiatomite (0.1–10 μm) zenza ukuba ibe sisixhobo esifanelekileyo sokucoca, sibambe amasuntswana amancinci ngelixa sivumela ukuhamba kolwelo.

• Ukutya kunye neziselo: Icacisa ibhiya, iwayini, ijusi, kunye nesiraphu ngokususa igwele, iintsholongwane, kunye nezinto eziqinileyo ezixotyulweyo, iphucula ukucaca kwayo kunye nexesha layo lokuphelelwa.
• Unyango lwamanzi: Isusa iintsimbi ezinzima (Pb²⁺, Cd²⁺), ungcoliseko lwezinto eziphilayo, kunye nevumba elibi elivela kumanzi amdaka emizi-mveliso, kumanzi kamasipala, nakwiidama zokudada.
• Amayeza: Ihluza amayeza okubulala iintsholongwane, ulwelo oluselwa ngomlomo, kunye neemveliso zebhayoloji ukuze kuhlanjululwe iintsholongwane.

Ulwakhiwo lwe-Diatomite olunemingxuma luvumelaukulawulwa komswakama, ukucocwa komoya, ukuthintela isandi, kunye nokugcinwa kobushushu.

• Udaka lweDiatom (Iingubo zodonga): Ifunxa/ikhupha umswakama ukuthintela ukungunda, ifunxa i-formaldehyde, i-benzene, kunye nee-VOC, kwaye inciphisa ingxolo—eyaziwa ngokuba “ludonga oluphefumlayo”.
• Ukufakwa kobushushu okuKhawulezayo: Isetyenziswa kwizitena ezishushu, kwiibhodi zokuthintela ubushushu, nakwii-linings ezirhabaxa ukuze kuxhathiswe ubushushu obuphezulu (ukuya kuthi ga kwi-1400°C) kunye nokuqhuba ubushushu obuphantsi.

Njengesithambisi-ndlela sokugcwalisa, siphucula iipropati zoomatshini kunye nokusebenziseka lula kwiipolymers.

• Iipeyinti kunye neengubo: Iphucula ukuqina, ukumelana nokukrwela, kunye nokugqitywa okungabonakaliyo; inciphisa ukuzola.
• Irabha kunye nePlastiki: Yomeleza ukuqina, ukumelana nobushushu, kunye nozinzo olulinganayo; kunciphisa iindleko.
• Ezolimo: Ifunxa izibulali-zinambuzane/izichumisi ukuze ikhuphe kancinci; isebenza njengesibulali-zinambuzane sendalo ngokonakalisa amathambo ezinambuzane.

Sibonelela nge-diatomite eluhlaza, ehlanjiweyo, efakwe i-calcium, neguqulweyo kumphezulu enobukhulu beentwana ezinokwenziwa ngokwezifiso kunye namanqanaba okucoceka. Iimveliso ziyahambelana ne-ISO 9001, i-REACH, kunye nemigangatho yokhuseleko lokutya, zikhonza amashishini okucoca ehlabathi, okusingqongileyo, kunye nokwakha. Iisampulu zasimahla kunye nenkxaso yobugcisa ziyafumaneka.
