Analysis of downstream uses of wollastonite mineral fiber: Strong enterprises have development advantages

Wollastonite, whose main component is Ca3Si3O9, is a flaky, needle-shaped or fibrous crystal with good hardness, brittle texture and glassy luster. According to the “Wollastonite Mineral Fiber Industry In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestions Report 2022-2026” released by the Industrial Research Center , Wollastonite mineral fiber is one of the products obtained by processing wollastonite. Due to its good thermal stability, chemical corrosion resistance, insulation and low hygroscopicity, it can be used as reinforcing materials, insulating materials, and friction materials. Used in papermaking, plastics, rubber, automobiles, building materials and other fields.

In the papermaking industry, wollastonite mineral fiber can replace some plant fibers, which can improve the mechanical strength of paper and is cheaper; wollastonite mineral fiber is a white fibrous crystal that can improve the whiteness, refractive index, and non-toxicity of paper. Properties such as transparency and uniformity can be used to produce newsprint, offset paper, writing paper and other cultural papers; wollastonite mineral fiber has good thermal stability, corrosion resistance, insulation and other properties, and special paper can be produced based on this. Generally speaking, wollastonite mineral fiber is used in the manufacturing industry to improve paper quality and increase the added value of products.

In the plastic rubber industry, wollastonite mineral fiber can be used as reinforcing filler, which can replace glass fiber. It has obvious effects in improving the flexural strength and tensile strength of plastic rubber, and can significantly reduce the cost of modified plastic rubber products. Production cost, can be used in the production of epoxy resin, polyethylene, polypropylene, etc. Wollastonite mineral fiber has low hygroscopicity and can also be used in the modification field of nylon and other products to reduce the water absorption of the product.

Wollastonite mineral fiber is mainly used in the automobile industry as a friction material to make automobile brake pads. In the early days, my country’s automobile brake pads mainly used asbestos as friction material. However, asbestos can cause diseases such as asbestosis and pleural mesothelioma. Its use was banned in 2003. Wollastonite mineral fiber has good hardness but high brittleness and is mixed with other fibers. It can be used in the production of automobile brake pads to improve the wear resistance and hardness of automobile brake pads.

In my country, there are a large number of wollastonite mineral fiber manufacturers. Hubei Fengjiashan Silicon Fiber Co., Ltd. is one of the representative enterprises. It specializes in the manufacturing and application development of wollastonite mineral fibers. It can produce high-purity, ultra-fine, and ultra-long fibers. , highly active products; Jiangxi Huajie Tai Mineral Fiber Technology Co., Ltd. is mainly engaged in the research and development, mining, processing and application of wollastonite mineral fibers. It is the main supplier of wollastonite mineral fibers for papermaking in my country; other wollastonite mineral fibers in my country Fiber manufacturers include Jiangxi Huanyu Wollastonite Fiber Materials Co., Ltd.

Industry analysts said that wollastonite mineral fiber is a natural fiber material that can be widely used in papermaking, plastics, rubber, in automobile and other industries. my country has abundant wollastonite ore resources and is the largest wollastonite producer in the world, providing sufficient raw materials for the development of the wollastonite mineral fiber industry. In my country’s wollastonite mineral fiber industry, companies generally have wollastonite ore mining qualifications. As national supervision becomes increasingly strict, companies with complete upstream and downstream layout of the industrial chain, large scale, and advanced technology have more development advantages.
