I-Organic bentonite luhlobo lwe-inorganic mineral/organic ammonium complex. Yenziwe nge-bentonite ngokusebenzisa isakhiwo esineengqimba ze-montmorillonite kwi-bentonite kunye neempawu zayo zokudumba nokusasazeka kwiinxalenye zodongwe lwe-colloidal emanzini okanye kwi-organic solvent, kunye nokufaka i-organic covering agent ngokusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe bokutshintshiselana nge-ion. I-Organic bentonite inokwenza i-gelatin kwiintlobo ngeentlobo ze-organic solvents, ii-oyile kunye ne-liquid resins. Inokutyeba okuhle, i-thixotropy, uzinzo lokumiswa, uzinzo lobushushu obuphezulu, ukuthambisa, ipropati yokwenza ifilimu, ukumelana namanzi kunye nokuzinza kweekhemikhali. Ixabiso layo libalulekile kushishino lokugquma. Ikwasetyenziswa kakhulu kwipeyinti, i-inki, inqwelo moya, isinyithi, i-fiber yeekhemikhali, i-petroleum kunye neminye imboni.

Iimpawu eziphambili ze-organobentonites kukudumba, ukusasazeka okuphezulu kunye ne-thixotropy. Ngokuphathelele ukugquma, i-organobentonite isetyenziswa ngokubanzi njenge-anti setting agent, i-thickener, kunye ne-metal anticorrosive coating, eneempawu zokuxhathisa ukugqwala, ukumelana nokuguguleka, ukumelana namanzi anetyuwa, ukumelana nempembelelo, kwaye akukho lula ukuba manzi; ngokubhekisele kushishino lwempahla, i-organobentonite isetyenziswa kakhulu njengoncedo lokudaya amalaphu e-synthetic fiber; ngokubhekisele kwi-inki yokuprinta ekhawulezayo, Lungisa ukuhambelana, i-viscosity kunye nokuvuleka kwe-inki njengoko kufuneka; ekubholeni, i-organobentonite ingasetyenziswa njenge-emulsion stabilizer; kwi-grisi yobushushu obuphezulu, i-organobentonite isetyenziswa ngokukodwa ukulungiselela i-grisi yobushushu obuphezulu efanelekileyo yokusebenza rhoqo ngexesha lobushushu obuphezulu nexesha elide.
