A material for detergent builder has to possess hard water softening property and alkalinity-giving property to washing water. GMCI‘s A type of zeolite indicates an excellent ion-exchange capacity and hard water softening property among other zeolites. Zeolites act as a builder for detergents that not only perform significant functions in the production process but also help in inhibition of greying and removal of dirt. As a detergent builder, GMCI’s Zeolite type A was developed specifically as an environmentally preferable alternative to phosphate builders, which can cause eutrophication of freshwater bodies by nourishing excessive amounts of algae.
The application of GMCI’s zeolites in detergent production has numerous advantages over other detergent builders. They have enhanced product stability regardless of the particular process employed (spray drying, granulation, extrusion), are inert when exposed to high temperature or alkalinity. The high flexibility of zeolite with respect to formulation and ease of processing together with the economic advantage of the raw material have led to it becoming an extremely attractive builder.
GMCI has been actively involved in development and production of zeolite products. We continue to provide various kind of zeolite products for our customers.
