Zusammenfassung:A composition for absorbing hydrocarbon material. The composition contains less than weight percent of water, has an absolute density of from about 1.2 to about 2.5 grams per cubic centimeter, and has a bulk density of from about 0.46 to about 0.85 grams per cubic centimeter. The composition also contains from about 15 to about 50 weight percent of organic matter and from about 85 to about 50 weight percent of inorganic matter, provided that the ratio of the weight of inorganic matter to the weight of organic matter is at least about 1.0. Said composition has a particle size distribution such that from about 30 to about 100 weight percent of the particles of said composition are smaller than 0.1 25 inches, and from about 60 to about 100 weight percent of such particles are within t he range of from about 0.0098 to about 0.125 inches.
