Wollastonite can be used in brake pads, ceramic glaze, etc., and is widely used in industrial production of automobiles, metallurgy, ceramics and plastics. Among them, the most promising area of wollastonite consumption in the world is the engineering plastics industry. Wollastonite is used as a filler and reinforcing agent for the plastics and rubber industry, and it is increasingly replacing metal parts in industrial manufactured products. Demand is growing rapidly.
Due to the improvement of processing methods, the acquisition of ultra-fine particles, potential new uses are being discovered one after another, making the use of wollastonite increasingly widespread. According to foreign experts' prediction, the proportion of wollastonite application in the future is as follows: 6% in ceramics industry and related departments; 22% in coatings, plastics and decorative materials; 5% asbestos substitute; 12% in insulating ceramic foam for insulation materials in El 6% of insulating ceramic foam for construction; 2% ceramic foam for refractory insulation; 4% ceramic foam for casting production; 3% for slag concrete block surface coating; 40% for paper production.
The above is TOPLUS summary application of wollastonite.
