High-quality Kaolin (China Clay) is used in electrical porcelain manufacturing and selected wire and cable insulation compounds. In electrical porcelain, kaolin contributes to plasticity, alumina content and ceramic body formation. For manufacturers, consistent chemical composition, controlled particle size and low impurity levels are important for reliable processing and finished-product quality.

- Calcined Kaolin
- Quartz / Silica
Kaolin for Electrical Insulation
Kaolin is an important raw material in electrical porcelain formulations used for insulators and other electrical components. In selected wire and cable compounds, specially processed kaolin grades can also serve as functional fillers. Its suitability depends on chemical composition, particle-size distribution, moisture content and application-specific requirements.
Key Mineral Requirements
How Kaolin Supports Electrical Insulation
In electrical porcelain, kaolin contributes to the formation and processing of ceramic bodies that are fired to produce insulating components. In suitable cable compounds, specially selected kaolin grades can contribute to electrical and mechanical properties. The final performance depends on the complete formulation, processing conditions and testing of the finished product.
