How It's Used

How Dolomite Powder Is Incorporated

Dolomite is added directly into batch formulations during raw material weighing and mixing, where it participates in the chemical process itself — dissolving in glass melts or hydrating in construction mixes — rather than acting only as inert bulk.

How Much Is Used

Typical Dosage in Ceramics

10–25% by weight in the ceramic body formulation.

Actual loading rates depend on your specific formulation and performance targets. Our technical team can recommend a starting point based on your current process.
