Its high whiteness makes it a highly appreciated white pigment. Its high density also allows it to be useful in construction materials and well drilling. On the other hand, it is also used in screens and porridges for X-rays. In addition, some of its main applications are in the paper industry and the manufacture of gums and rubber.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|on” admin_label=”todos icones sectores” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-20px||-40px|40px|false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” disabled=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n \u00a0 [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb title=”CHEMICAL ” url=”https:\/\/fillersminerals.com\/en\/sectors\/#chemical” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||fa||900″ icon_color=”#ffffff” icon_placement=”left” disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.20.2″ header_level=”h2″ header_font=”Josefin Sans|700||on|||||” header_font_size=”14px” header_line_height=”3em” body_font=”Open Sans||||||||” body_font_size=”18px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”gcid-cdbeebbd-9329-46d3-b701-4bf7b23649d2″ background_layout=”dark” custom_margin=”|||200px|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||30px|” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_padding=”15px|20px|5px|20px|false|true” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”left” animation_delay=”300ms” animation_intensity_fold=”20%” animation=”off” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_vertical=”40px” box_shadow_blur=”60px” box_shadow_spread=”-30px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.34)” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-cdbeebbd-9329-46d3-b701-4bf7b23649d2%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”CONSTRUCTION” url=”https:\/\/fillersminerals.com\/en\/sectors\/#construction” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||fa||900″ icon_color=”#ffffff” icon_placement=”left” disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.20.2″ header_level=”h2″ header_font=”Josefin Sans|700||on|||||” header_font_size=”14px” header_line_height=”3em” body_font=”Open Sans||||||||” body_font_size=”18px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”gcid-cdbeebbd-9329-46d3-b701-4bf7b23649d2″ background_layout=”dark” custom_margin=”|||200px|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||30px|” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_padding=”15px|20px|5px|20px|false|true” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”left” animation_delay=”300ms” animation_intensity_fold=”20%” animation=”off” link_option_url=”https:\/\/fillersminerals.com\/en\/sectors\/#construction” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_vertical=”40px” box_shadow_blur=”60px” box_shadow_spread=”-30px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.34)” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-cdbeebbd-9329-46d3-b701-4bf7b23649d2%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=”PHARMA” url=”https:\/\/fillersminerals.com\/en\/sectors\/#farma” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||fa||900″ icon_color=”#ffffff” icon_placement=”left” disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.19.0″ header_level=”h2″ header_font=”Josefin Sans|700||on|||||” header_font_size=”14px” header_line_height=”3em” body_font=”Open Sans||||||||” body_font_size=”18px” body_line_height=”1.8em” background_color=”gcid-6c7e0f88-6779-466b-8f9a-b014c0d195db” background_layout=”dark” custom_margin=”|||200px|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||30px|” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_padding=”15px|20px|5px|20px|false|true” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”left” animation_delay=”300ms” animation_intensity_fold=”20%” animation=”off” link_option_url=”https:\/\/fillersminerals.com\/en\/sectors\/#farma” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_vertical=”40px” box_shadow_blur=”60px” box_shadow_spread=”-30px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.34)” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-6c7e0f88-6779-466b-8f9a-b014c0d195db%22:%91%22background_color%22%93}”][\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=”Coatings and paints” url=”https:\/\/fillersminerals.com\/en\/applications\/#paint-coating” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||fa||900″ icon_color=”#bdad9b” icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”30px” admin_label=”ap recubrimientos pinturas” _builder_version=”4.20.2″ header_font=”Josefin Sans||on||||||” header_line_height=”1.9em” custom_margin=”||20px||false|false” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”right” animation_intensity_slide=”4%” animation=”off” icon_font_size=”30px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Barite is used in the manufacture of white pigments for paints.

Known as CI Pigment White 22 on the Colour Index and the synthetic product CI Pigment White 21 (Colour P Index No. 77120, 1971).<\/p>\n It is used as a filler or extender to improve handling, increase opacity (in watercolour and gouache) and\/or adulterate oil colours.

Its high density allows it to be easily detectable in X-rays and CT scans, which helps to visualize internal structures of the human body. In addition, it is also used as an additive in medicines to improve their fluidity and as a filler in capsules and tablets. Barite is considered a safe and effective ingredient in the production of pharmaceutical products, and its use is regulated and supervised by the corresponding health agencies.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
