What's the role of wollastonite in ceramic fiber products?

Answer:

Wollastonite application in the ceramic industry: it can produce glazed tile, sanitary ware, daily porcelain, fine arts porcelain, power porcelain, high frequency low consumption electric porcelain, chemical ceramics, glaze, pigment, glass, mould, etc.. The main role for wollastonite in ceramic industry are: 1, reduce the sintering temperature of 2.; shorten the firing period; 3. increase of body and burning body temperature; 4. easy molding; 5. reduce blank firing shrinkage; 6. to reduce the moisture expansion of bodies; 7. decrease of glass phase viscosity.
Wollastonite is a new type of industrial minerals, with its unique physical and chemical properties of mineralogy, and are widely used in ceramics, paint, rubber, metallurgy, casting, welding, abrasive, glass, mineral wool and other industrial sectors. Wollastonite is an ideal raw material for asbestos substitutes.With the continuous development of science and technology, the application research of wollastonite is more and more thorough. The improvement of the grinding method of wollastonite and the obtaining of ultra fine grade wollastonite powder will continue to develop new application fields of wollastonite.
