Dolomite

Dolomite, a sedimentary rock mineral abundant in magnesium and calcium carbonate, boasts a variety of other minerals in smaller proportions. Recognized for its high purity levels, flame retardant properties, strong compression strength, excellent shearing abilities, and superior wetting characteristics, Dolomite is highly valued. Shaheen ensures continuous and smooth production processes while maintaining consistent quality standards for dolomite minerals. The exceptional optical brightness of Shaheen’s dolomite allows for reduced usage of costly white pigments. With an ideal particle size distribution for improved dispersion and enhanced impact resistance across various applications, Shaheen Dolomite Mineral Powder stands out for its shear and compressive strength.

One of the primary applications of Shaheen dolomite is within the construction industry. Furthermore, it plays a crucial role in cement manufacturing when calcined. Dolomite serves as a source material for magnesia production, an essential additive in livestock feed chemicals, a sintering agent and flux during metal processing, as well as a key component in glassmaking, brick production, and ceramics manufacturing processes. Additionally used as an oil and gas reservoir rock with versatile functionalities including acting as a functional filler in PVC materials and other polymers within the plastic industry or serving as an extender in emulsion paints and powder coatings.
