Wollastonite
Wollastonite is one of the most versatile minerals. It is a naturally found mineral that is a mixture of calcium, silicon and oxygen. However, it is majorly found in the regions of Rajasthan, Gujarat and some parts of Tamil Nadu in India
The physical properties of Wollastonite include an eclectic needle looking structure which is high in brightness and has superior tones of white. It also has low moisture, oil-absorbing and high thermal stability with less solubility in water. It is low in volatility and has a high melting temperature. Wollastonite has medium hardness with rank of 4.5 on Mohâ??s scale.
All of these properties make it an excellent and versatile mineral to be used in industries like plastics, paints, ceramics, construction and adhesives to mention a few.
We have majorly focused our supply of Wollastonite mineral on its high-end applications in the ceramics, paints and plastics industries.
Within the sphere of the plastics industry, it is a brilliant and less-expensive mineral substitute for fiberglass, carbon fiber and synthetic minerals. It is very much popular in automobile industries, as it can enhance the strength, dimensional stability, and influence resistance of car parts, aiding the manufacturers with lighter parts.
Wollastonite is a calcium inosilicate mineral (CaSiO3) that may contain small amounts of iron, magnesium, and manganese substituting for calcium.
It's often used in electronic equipment like connectors and computer housings because of its great insulating and fire-resistant qualities.
Wollastonite mineral is customized to meet the needs of our clients' industries. Our wollastonite is anti-corrosion mineral that is ideal for paints and coatings sector. Wollastonite can improve the fire strength of ceramic tiles and sanitary ware, as well as reduce cracking and glazing faults, for ceramic manufacturers.
Our Wollastonite is an excellent reinforcing filler for cement boards and fire-insulating boards in the building industry.
Aryan Tiles is confident in the quality of its Wollastonite minerals. Wollastonite has proven to be the most adaptable material used in various key sectors, and the market for it is constantly expanding.
Wollastonite is a calcium, silicon, and oxygen-based industrial mineral. It is generally white, although it can also be colorless or gray. CaSiO3 is the molecular formula of Wollastonite. 2.86-3.09 is the specific gravity of it.
What are the Purposes of using Wollastonite?
Wollastonite increases weather resistance, lowers brightness and coloring, and works as a flatting and suspension agent, as well as performing as a smoothing and suspending agent.

What are the Uses in Ceramics?
Wollastonite is used in the manufacture of ceramics. It reduces firing and drying shrinkage, and lowers the temperature at which the glasslike stage is constructed. It minimizes instability and glaze problems in ceramic production and reduces shrinkage and gas expansion.
What are the other Applications?
In spite of being used in ceramics, wollastonite is also used in plastics, steel, and in the production of paints and coatings.
Wollastonite is a calcium inosilicate mineral (CaSiO3) that may contain small amounts of iron, magnesium, and manganese substituting for calcium. It is usually white. ome of the properties that make wollastonite so useful are its high brightness and whiteness, low moisture and oil absorption, and low volatile content. Wollastonite is used primarily in ceramics, friction products (brakes and clutches), metalmaking, paint filler, and plastics.
