Barites Powder

Barytes (or barite) is the naturally occurring mineral form of barium sulphate. Its main properties are its high specific gravity (4.5), very low solubility. Barites is a chemically, magnetically and physically neutral and generally environmentally disposable barite is as a “weighting agent” in drilling applications, especially in the oil and gas industry, Barite is the preferred component to control hole pressure and preserve the longevity of drilling equipment. Barite is not considered to be a toxic chemical due to its extreme insolubility. A grade barytes powder which we manufacture consists of Above 4.20 SG which is highly used in oil drilling rigs. It is also found useful in the manufacture of white pigment or extender in pigments and barium chemicals, in the glass industry and as filler in rubber, leather, textile and paper goods.
