    TECHNICAL INFORMATION

    Highly active bleaching earth

    TONSIL® OPTIMUM 210 FF

    Product description

    TONSIL OPTIMUM 210 FF is a highly active bleaching earth used in a wide scope of applications. It is
    manufactured by acid activation of calcium bentonite.

    TONSIL OPTIMUM 210 FF is a fine, yellowish-grey powder showing a highly porous inner structure and
    a multitude of acid sites upon its surface.

    TONSIL OPTIMUM 210 FF possesses an outstanding adsorptive capacity for polar compounds like
    chlorophyll, carotinoids, phospholipids, peroxides, via chemisorption and acid catalysis.

    TONSIL OPTIMUM 210 FF is very suitable for refining vegetable and animal oils and fats, moreover for
    finishing and/or reprocessing numerous types of mineral oils, paraffins and waxes.
