电气石功能复合材料研究进展及前景展望

Research development and prospects of functional tourmaline composites

电气石为环状结构硅酸盐矿物,具有压电性、热释电性、远红外辐射和释放负离子性等独特性能,通过物理或化学方法与其他材料复合,可制得多种功能材料,被广泛应用于环保、电子、医药、化工、轻工、建材等领域,已成为一种高附加价值的新型工业矿物,受到人们的广泛重视。中国的电气石功能矿物的产地达150多处,有80多处电气石的储存量在数千万吨以上,所以电气石功能复合材料的研发对电气石功能矿物的高性能利用以及新型功能复合材料的制备均具有重要的意义。综述了电气石功能复合材料的研究进展,并对其发展前景进行了展望。

Tourmaline is a kind of cyclosilicate minerals, and has many excellent characteristics such as piezoelectricity, thermoelectricity, far-infrared radiation and negative ion releasing. Many kinds of functional composites having special properties could be obtained by compositing tourmaline with other materials through physical or chemical methods and applied widely to many fields, for example： environmental protection, electronic industry, medicine, chemical engineering, building materials and so on. Tourmaline has become a novel functional mineral material with high potential merits and drew much attention widely. The distribution of tourmaline mineral in China is over 150 places, and the tourmaline storages of more than 80 places are above ten million tons; therefore, the research of tourmaline functional composites is of significance for the utilization of high performance of functional tourmaline and for the preparation of novel functional composites. In this work, we have summarized the research development of functional tourmaline composites and looked to the future of the development tendency of functional tourmaline composites and its potentials.
