MIKOLIT®
Borehole sealing pellets which ensure optimum performance, together with simple and efficient installation. Wyoming and European type Bentonites are generally used for such applications.
MIKOLIT® B
A high-swelling Bentonite finely ground and compressed into 6mm diameter rods. It is not chemically treated and is therefore safe for use in water wells.
Superior swelling properties - 525% fresh water, 125% sea water
Very low permeability - < 10-12 m/s
Delayed swelling action - 4 hours
MIKOLIT®300
A blend of pure clay and 300% Bentonite finely ground and compressed into 6mm diameter rods to provide excellent swelling properties together with the environmental advantages of pure clay.
Excellent swelling properties - 100% fresh water
Low permeability - < 10-11 m/s
Delayed swelling action - 2 hours
MIKOLIT® 00
A pure ‘Brunssum’ clay finely ground and compressed into 6mm diameter rods to provide a low permeability seal similar to ‘in-situ’ clays.
Swelling properties - 40% fresh water
Low permeability - < 10-10 m/s
