The Unique Properties Of The Zeolite Crystals

By Jennifer Hill


Containing alkali and alkaline materials, Zeolites are a unique group of minerals characterized by construction by their crystalline and hydrated aluminosilicates properties. Their structure is based on a three-dimensional framework structure of silica-oxygen tetrahedra. Arranged in a honeycomb network, the crystal framework is characterized by numerous pores holding negative charges which are balanced with cations such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium. For that reason, the zeolite crystals have found many uses from weight management, detoxification to construction.

The minerals can be described as nonporous hydrated aluminosilicates with a three-dimensional framework structure. The linked framework combined with its inherent high porosity gives rise to the Twist Road zeolite having a high absorptive capacity.

There are approximately 40 different crystal types and their occurrence depends on conditions during formation. Mines located in the North Island of New Zealand are renowned for the production of clinoptilolite, a notable variation in the crystal group which are young in age and contain unsurpassed absorption qualities. These minerals have been utilized for their unique properties for ionic absorption in many commercial applications. Their large internal surface area allows them to absorb liquids efficiently, with the ability to absorb up to 70% in their own weight as a liquid.

The company that produces the original powder product has a proprietary method of cleaning the cages that hold heavy metals that they picked up in nature. That means that when you use that particular product, the particles are "activated" to pick up the most toxins from your body that they can possibly carry because they are clean and empty. They also start out using a clean mine that is dedicated to creating supplements, so the quality is much higher starting out.

This preparation can include nutrient loading with organic or inorganic liquids for products such as animal feed and fertilizer. It can also be used for absorption of liquids and odors e. G. Ammonia, which makes it ideal for use in pet litter and soaking up oil/chemical spills, and as a fat absorber for barbecues. It can also be used to remove ammonium from wastewater. In New Zealand it has been used in outdoor sports stadiums and golf courses, in the turf root zone, to aid nutrient and moisture retention. It is also used in slow release fertilizers.

The particles in my preferred powder product are uniformly small enough to mostly get through the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream (about 80% get excreted through the urine.) Most powdered products producers haven't taken the time to ensure this. Without proper size control, most of the powder is simply moving through the intestines and exiting the other end, never having entered the body to remove the buildup of toxins. Liquid ones come with absolutely no side effects and it gets eliminated from your body, together with the gathered toxins, in only 8 hours after taking it.

The Twist Road zeolite has a typical bulk density of indicatively 550-700kg/m3 which is similar to that of attapulgite. Compared to other types, this is light though. The crystals from Australian deposits has typical densities of 1200kg/m3 - a result of their age. For the zeolite world, this means that Twist Road zeolite does not need to be as fine as older crystals to get the same absorptive performance.

The crystals include a lot more wide open, much less thick constructions as compared to some other silicates; in between 20% and 50 % in the amount of a zeolite, construction is voids. Silicates also have three-dimensional frameworks of tetrahedra are generally classified as tectosilicates. Aside from the zeolites, some other tectosilicates consist of quartz and feldspars.
