Diatomite

Description:

Diatomite, also known as diatomaceous earth, is a naturally occurring, soft, siliceous sedimentary rock primarily composed of the fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of microscopic algae. Its chemical composition is predominantly silica (SiO2), often exceeding 80%, along with varying amounts of alumina, iron oxide, and other trace minerals. Diatomite is characterized by its lightweight, porous structure, which gives it excellent absorbent properties and a high surface area. It is typically white to off-white in color and has a low density, making it useful in various applications. Due to its abrasive nature, diatomite is commonly used as a filtration aid, in the production of insulation materials, and as a natural pesticide. Additionally, it serves as a filler in products like paints and plastics. The substance is non-toxic and environmentally friendly, making it suitable for use in food-grade applications, such as in the filtration of beverages. However, inhalation of diatomaceous earth dust should be avoided, as it can cause respiratory issues.

Celite

CAS: 61790-53-2

Celite is a porous, granular material that has been used as an adsorbent and filter medium for the separation of particles from fluids. It is made of aluminum silicate with small amounts of other substances such as sodium, calcium, or iron oxide. Celite is chemically inert and has a high surface area. The redox potential of celite depends on the amount of zirconium oxide in the material. This property can be used to remove oxygen from human serum or to purify water vapor by removing dissolved gases such as oxygen and nitrogen. Celite can also be used to separate biological materials using surface methodology. Histological analysis shows that celite filters can remove cellular components such as lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and other macromolecules without altering their structure. A nutrient solution containing benzimidazole compounds was found to have high values when filtered through celite due to its ability to bind these molecules through hydrogen bonding interactions.
