Ibisobanuro:
Kaolini ni amabuye y'agaciro atari icyuma, ibumba n'ibumba ryiganjemo amabuye y'agaciro ya kaolinite. Kubera ko ari umweru kandi yoroshye,
yitwa kandi dolomite. Kaolini yayo nziza ni umweru, ni nziza kandi yoroshye, ifite imiterere myiza y'umubiri n'imiti nka plasticity
no kurwanya inkongi y'umuriro. Ibigize amabuye y'agaciro bigizwe ahanini na kaolinite, halloysite, hydromica, illite, montmorillonite na
quartz, feldspar n'andi mabuye y'agaciro.
Kaolin ikoreshwa cyane mu mpapuro, mu byuma bikoreshwa mu bumba n'ibikoresho birwanya ubushyuhe, icya kabiri mu gusiga, mu byuma bitunganya imipira, mu byuma bisiga enamel n'umweru
ibikoresho bya sima, kandi mu rugero ruto mu bikoresho bya pulasitiki, amarangi, irangi, amapine, amapine yo gusya, amakaramu, amavuta yo kwisiga yo mu rugo, amasabune,
Inganda nk'imiti yica udukoko, ubuvuzi, imyenda, peteroli, imiti, ibikoresho by'ubwubatsi, no kurengera igihugu.
