Ubumba olucushiwe luyi-adsorbent eyenziwe ngobumba (ikakhulukazi i-bentonite) njengento eluhlaza, ephathwa nge-acidification ye-inorganic, usawoti noma ezinye izindlela, bese ihlanjululwa futhi yomiswa ngamanzi.Inokubonakala kwempushana emhlophe njenge-milky, ayinaphunga, ayinaphunga, ayinabuthi, futhi inokusebenza okunamandla kwe-adsorption.Ingakwazi ukukhangisa izinto ezinemibala kanye ne-organic.Kulula ukumunca umswakama emoyeni, futhi ukuwubeka isikhathi eside kuzonciphisa ukusebenza kwe-adsorption.Uma usebenzisa, kuhle ukushisa (okungcono ku-80-100 degrees Celsius) ukuze uvuselele.Nokho, ukushisa okungaphezu kuka-300 degrees Celsius kuqala ukulahlekelwa amanzi ayikristalu, okubangela izinguquko zesakhiwo futhi kuthinte umphumela wokufiphala.Ubumba olucushiwe aluncibiliki emanzini, kumakhemikhali aphilayo, namafutha ahlukahlukene, acishe ancibilike ngokuphelele ku-hot caustic soda ne-hydrochloric acid, enobuningi obuhlobene obungu-2.3-2.5, kanye nokuvuvukala okuncane emanzini namafutha.

Ubumba olumhlophe olwenzeka ngokwemvelo olunezinto ezingokwemvelo zokushibilika ubumba olumhlophe, olumpunga olumhlophe ikakhulukazi olwakhiwe i-montmorillonite, i-albite, ne-quartz, futhi iwuhlobo lwe-bentonite.

Ikakhulukazi umkhiqizo wokubola kwamadwala entaba-mlilo ayingilazi, angandi ngemva kokumunca amanzi, futhi inani le-pH lokumiswa lihlukile kulelo le-alkaline bentonite;Ukusebenza kwayo kubi kakhulu kunobumba olucushiwe.Imibala ngokuvamile ihlanganisa okuphuzi okukhanyayo, okumhlophe okuluhlaza okotshani, okumpunga, umbala womnqumo, onsundu, omhlophe wobisi, obomvu bepentshisi, oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, njll. Imbalwa kakhulu emhlophe emsulwa.Ukuminyana 2.7-2.9g/cm.Ukuminyana okubonakala kuvame ukuphansi ngenxa ye-porosity yayo.Ukwakheka kwamakhemikhali kufana nobumba obuvamile, izingxenye zamakhemikhali eziyinhloko ziyi-aluminium oxide, i-silicon dioxide, amanzi, nenani elincane lensimbi, i-magnesium, i-calcium, njll. Ayikho i-plasticity, enamandla amakhulu okukhangisa.Ngenxa yokuqukethwe kwayo okuphezulu kwe-hydrous silicic acid, i-acidic ku-litmus.Amanzi athambekele ekuqhekekeni futhi anenani eliphezulu lamanzi.Ngokuvamile, ukucoleka kokuqina, kuyanda amandla okukhipha umbala.

Lapho kwenziwa ukuhlolwa kwekhwalithi phakathi nesigaba sokuhlola, kuyadingeka ukukala ukusebenza kwayo kokumhlophe, i-asidi, ukusebenza kokuhlunga, ukumuncwa kukawoyela, nezinye izinto.
