At DB Group, our Research & Development (R&D) laboratory plays a vital role in mineral quality control, product development and application-focused testing. Our technical team evaluates the physical, chemical and optical properties of industrial minerals including Talc, Feldspar, Quartz, Kaolin, Mica, Dolomite and other mineral products.
Our R&D capabilities enable us to develop and optimize mineral powders and industrial mineral grades according to specific customer and industry requirements, while supporting consistent quality and process improvement.
Key Mineral Testing Parameters
- Whiteness & Brightness – Optical quality and colour performance
- Wet & Dry Mesh Analysis – Fineness
- Bulk Density (LBD & TBD) – Powder handling and packing characteristics
- L*a*b* Colour Values – Precise colour measurement
- Oil Absorption – Surface characteristics and formulation behaviour
- Water Absorption – Moisture interaction and application performance
- Moisture Content – Product stability and storage quality
- Calcium & Iron Testing – Chemical purity and elemental control
- Loss on Ignition (LOI) – Thermal stability and compositional evaluation
