Barytes 300 mesh is a Barytes ore that has been carefully selected to give a typical BaSO4 content of over 87%. Barytes 300 mesh is milled to a mean particle size between 8 and 12 microns. The product has a cream to off-white hue.

Barytes 300 mesh is a relatively soft industrial mineral with a high specific gravity. This property renders Barytes 300mesh an ideal weighting agent in paint, plastics and rubber. Additionally, it's light colour, low oil absorption and easy wettability by oils and resins allows Barytes 300 mesh to be used in primers, paints, friction materials, rubber (floor mats), carpet backing and radiation shielding for a variety of technical applications.

Microblanc is a name given to a barytes ore that has been carefully selected to give a typical BaS04 content of over 90% in order that it's chemical composition is close to the theoretical purity of 58,85% elemental barium. Microblanc Standard is milled to a mean particle size of 4 microns.

The combined physical chemical characteristics of Microblanc render the product an ideal functional filler in paints, plastics and rubber as well as applications requiring consistency in density.
