“…Moreover, wollastonite has many beneficial chemical and physical properties such as low water and oil adsorption, chemical inertness and low thermal expansion and addition to cement matrix of wollastonite microfibers supplies an effective micro reinforcing mechanism that develops resistance to reverse physical and chemical attacks 22,29,41,42 . Therefore, wollastonite is used in ceramics for dinnerware and wall tiles, plastics, friction products (brakes and clutches), metallurgy, glazes, paint filler, coating, paint, rubber and refractories, replace for asbestos in floor tiles, rubber, wallboard applications, joint compounds, and adhesives 23,41,43 . Most of the publications mentioned above in the literature are related to the effects of natural wollastonite on concrete.…”
