I-Halloysiteiyiminerali ye-silicate, futhi ubumba lwe-halloysite lulungile futhi luncane ngokungcola.Isetshenziswa kakhulu ekukhiqizeni izitsha ze-ceramics ezisezingeni eliphakeme, i-porcelain kagesi, iziphambano kanye nezinto eziphikisayo.Ukusetshenziswa kwe-halloysite kufana nalokho kwe-kaolinite, futhi iphinde ibe impahla eluhlaza yezitsha zobumba ezisezingeni eliphezulu.Ingasetshenziswa embonini yamakhemikhali ukwenza ama-sieve amangqamuzana futhi njengesithwali se-catalyst, nanjengokugcwalisa izimboni zepulasitiki, zenjoloba kanye nopende.
