Omea Omeao se ituaiga inorganic mineral/organic ammonium lavelave, lea e faia e le tekinolosi fesuiaiga o ion e ala i le faaaogaina o le fausaga lamellar o le montmorillonite i bentonite ma lona gafatia e faalautele ma taape i le omea colloidal i le vai po o solu organic.

O le bentonite fa'aletino e mafai ona fai ni gels i so'o so'o, suau'u ma resini vai.O loʻo i ai mea faʻafefete lelei, thixotropy, faʻamautu faʻamalolo, mautu maualuga-vevela, lubricity, mea faʻapipiʻi ata, faʻafefe vai ma mautu vailaʻau.

E faʻaaogaina lautele foi i vaitusi vali, vaalele, metallurgy, fibre vailaʻau, suauu ma isi pisinisi.

Organobentonite o se tuufaatasiga o se organic quaternary ammonium masima ma natural bentonite.O uiga autu o le organic bentonite o le fulafula, dispersion maualuga ma thixotropy i organic medium.I tulaga o coatings, organic bentonite e masani ona faʻaaogaina e pei o le anti-sedimentation agent, thickening agent, e pei o se uʻamea anticorrosive coating, corrosion teteʻe, ofuina teteʻe, saltwater tafia, aafiaga tetee, e le faigofie ona susu uiga; I totonu o le alamanuia textile, bentonite organic e masani ona faʻaaogaina e pei o le valiina fesoasoani mo fabrics.In maualuga-saosaoa lomitusi vaitusi, e tusa ai ma le manaʻoga e fetuʻunaʻi le vaitusi tumau, viscosity ma pulea permeability; I le viliina, o le bentonite organic e mafai ona faʻaaogaina e fai ma faʻamautu emulsion. I tulaga o le gaʻo maualuga, o le bentonite organic e faʻaaoga faapitoa e saunia ai le gaʻo maualuga maualuga e talafeagai mo le vevela maualuga ma fa'aauau pea galuega umi.
