Barium sulfate (barite) in beneficiated form is a high-purity mineral product obtained through flotation and processing, primarily used as a weighting agent in oil and gas drilling fluids, and as a filler in paints, coatings, and plastics. International trade focuses on grades meeting API specifications, typically 4.0-4.2 specific gravity for drilling applications and varying brightness levels (85-95%) for industrial uses. China dominates global production and exports, followed by India, Morocco, and Mexico. Buyers should verify whiteness and particle size distribution, as these directly affect suspension performance in drilling muds and visibility in coating applications; lower-grade material may contain deleterious elements requiring additional processing.
