Discussion

Analysis of bentonite's mineral content and physical properties reveals its effectiveness in ceramics production, indicating broad potential uses.

Bentonite exhibits non-swelling Ca-type characteristics, which are favorable for ceramic applications.
XRD analysis shows major minerals including montmorillonite and cristobalite, ensuring high performance.
Assessment included physicochemical parameters like plasticity and water absorption for optimal quality.
Investigation's findings suggest that enhanced bentonite properties may improve ceramics manufacturing processes.

Radulović et al. (2025) studied this question.
