Alphatex™ HP calcined kaolin

Product Description

Alphatex™ HP is a high brightness, calcined clay designed to possess greater pore volume and coarser particle size distribution. A precisely controlled thermal process is used to process select kaolin feed. The result is a product with higher surface area than standard calcine clay.

Application

Alphatex™ HP was designed for filling applications, especially newsprint, where coefficient of friction is difficult to achieve. Like Alphatex™, Alphatex™ HP is excellent in increasing brightness, opacity and ink strike through. The high surface area creates a product with high oil absorption, key to applications where improved ink receptivity is required.

Shipping

Alphatex™ HP is available in slurry, dry bulk and bag forms. For more information regarding shipping
