dc.description.abstractThis project was carried out to investigate the characteristics of local kaolin for the paper industry. The investigation included the chemical and physical properties. Samples were taken from a few localities around Gua Musang, Kelantan. Kaolins are white raw materials, their essential constituent being fine grained white clay, which are amenable for beneficiation that make them ideal for an assortment of industrial applications. Characterization test that were conducted to all samples include particle size distribution, surface area, brightness, color, viscosity, water content and chemical composition, loss of ignition, pH. The characterizations were conducted to reviewed with respect to the uses for specific applications in paper industry. As we know, the results shown that the Gua Musang kaolin’s is not suitable for the paper industry. So that, beneficiation through new delamination techniques is the special process to improve the properties of kaolin. Delamination is a process where a large kaolinite stack is separated into several thin large diameter plates. The process involves the high shear agitation of a kaolin slurry wit pellets at optimum pulp density.
