Sepiolite Fiber – Natural Thixotropic Reinforcing Mineral Fiber

Sepiolite fiber is a natural hydrated magnesium silicate fibrous mineral with unique micro-pore and needle crystal structure. As a multi-functional inorganic additive, it is widely applied in architectural coatings, mortar, sealing materials, friction accessories, rubber plastics and environmental adsorption fields. It owns core advantages of environmental safety, excellent thixotropy, crack resistance, high temperature resistance and high cost performance.

  1. Meticulous craftsmanship: Two production paths ensure controllable and traceable quality
  1. Natural mineral primary processing

Raw sepiolite ore goes through crushing, drying, coarse grinding and screening to remove large impurities. The production cost is low, fiber shape is complete, suitable for ordinary putty, general mortar filling and low-grade friction material production with cost control demands.

  1. Purification activation and surface modification

Adopt precise working procedures including ore sorting impurity removal, acid activation, fiber grading and organic surface modification. Mine tailings can be recycled to realize green circular production. Finished modified sepiolite fiber has high mineral purity, uniform fiber length, strong dispersion and stable thixotropy, meeting strict standards of high-end anti-sagging coatings, oil-free sealing gaskets and food contact auxiliary materials.

  1. Core Features: Six Major Advantages Underpin "Abundant Value"
  1. Environmentally friendly and non-toxic, compliant and worry-free

Free of heavy metals and radioactive substances, conform to EU REACH, RoHS and Chinese national standards, non-polluting, applicable to indoor decoration, food contact materials and children’s supplies.

  1. Weather-resistant and lightfast, long-lasting and stable

Superior UV resistance and anti-aging performance, no pulverization, embrittlement or performance attenuation under long-term outdoor exposure, stable in high temperature, damp and rainy environments.

  1. Acid and alkali resistant and corrosion resistant

Excellent alkali resistance, perfectly compatible with cement, latex and resin systems; stable against weak acid erosion, hard to deteriorate, ideal raw material for anti-corrosion coatings and engineering mortar.

  1. Outstanding thixotropy and strong reinforcing crack resistance

Unique needle fiber network structure endows the system with obvious anti-sagging and anti-sedimentation effect; greatly improve the toughness, impact resistance and shrinkage crack resistance of mortar and coatings, low addition amount can reach ideal effect to cut costs.

  1. Good dispersibility and convenient construction

Uniform fiber fineness, not easy to agglomerate after stirring in water-based and solvent-based systems, fit for spraying, scraping, mixing and other construction techniques of coatings, rubber and mortar.

  1. Batch stability and controllable quality

Formal manufacturers implement ISO9001 quality management system, each batch keeps consistent fiber length, purity and thixotropic index, avoiding construction quality loss caused by unstable raw material performance.

  1. Empowering all industries: From basic building materials to high-end manufacturing, covering all sectors
  1. Building Materials Industry

Interior and exterior wall coatings, anti-crack putty, thermal insulation mortar: anti-sagging, anti-cracking, thickening and thixotropy;Waterproof mortar, engineering ground base material: enhance compactness and anti-seepage performance.

  1. Plastics and Rubber and Sealing Industry

Rubber sealing strips, non-asbestos gaskets, plastic profiles: improve heat resistance, dimensional stability and sealing performance.

  1. Friction Materials and Environmental Protection Field

Brake pads, friction plates: stable friction coefficient, high temperature resistance and wear resistance;Waste gas deodorization, sewage filter medium: porous structure enhances adsorption capacity for pollutants.
