Research Fields and Progress of Pyrophyllite Mineral Materials in China

摘要

Pyrophyllite is one of important nonmetallic mineral resources, which is widely used in ceramics、 refractory material, composite material filler and sealing & pressure transmitting medium etc. Nowadays, the further research is being carrying out on pyrophyrite's new functions and application fields such as genetic mineralogy and species classification. The comprehensive utilization status and research fields of pyrophyllite mineral materials in China were introduced in the paper.
