If "kaolint" is intended to refer to kaolinite, then it is a clay mineral. Kaolinite is a hydrated aluminum silicate with the chemical formula Al2Si2O5(OH)4. It is a member of the kaolin group of clay minerals and is formed by the chemical weathering of aluminum silicate minerals, such as feldspar. Kaolinite is typically white and has a soft, earthy feel. It is known for its low plasticity and binding properties.

Kaolinite has numerous industrial applications. It is a primary component in the production of porcelain, ceramics, paper, paint, and rubber. In the paper industry, kaolinite is used as a filler and coating to improve brightness, opacity, and printability. Its absorbent properties also make it useful in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, for example, in talcum powder and antidiarrheal medications. Further research or clarification would be necessary to determine if "kaolint" refers to kaolinite or a distinct entity.
