On September 3, China's sepiolite industry added a new force, and the sepiolite insulation substrate project with an annual output of 30,000 tons settled in China's sepiolite new material technology industrial park.
"Sepiolite is called'industrial monosodium glutamate' in the industry." Zeng Zhaogang, deputy general manager of XTJT Sepiolite Technology Co., Ltd. said that sepiolite can be widely used in air purification materials, antibacterial materials, photocatalytic purification materials, petroleum catalysts, Deep-sea drilling mud, lithium-ion battery porous silicon anode materials, special ceramic castings, nano materials, soil essence materials, animal feed additives, chemical carriers, construction engineering additives, etc. China's sepiolite materials have been exported to Japan, South Korea and other countries.
In the parent company XJ Advanced Materials Technology Group, XTJT has had two series of industrial and civil products since its establishment. Industrial products include sepiolite heavy metal stabilizing agent, sepiolite farmland soil conditioner, sepiolite pesticide carrier, aldehyde absorption sea Sepiolite flour, sepiolite feed mold release agent, sepiolite for diatom mud, modified sepiolite for rubber-plastic composite materials, etc.; civil products include sepiolite functional wall material, sepiolite air purifier, sea Fogging anti-fog masks, etc., the products have been tested by the national authority, and the main performance and indicators are better than similar products in the market, and they have been widely trusted and praised by users at home and abroad.
Up to now, the company has applied for more than 30 patents, 17 authorized patents, accepted more than 20 patents, 6 technical secrets, 18 registered trademarks, 3 copyright applications, and 1 local standard has been formulated and published. One standard, one industry standard, and one association standard are under development. More than 20 sepiolite products have been developed. There are more than 80 sets of advanced equipment and instruments such as the Dutch PANalytical X-ray diffractometer, the American Contabi surface aperture tester, and the American Thermo Fisher atomic absorption spectrophotometer. At the same time, Xiangtan Sepiolite Industry Research Institute was jointly established with XT University. The company's sepiolite R&D team won the honorary title of "Provincial Enterprise Technology Innovation and Entrepreneurship Team".
China`s sepiolite resources are mainly distributed in HN. Among them, the proven reserves of sepiolite resources in the XT area exceed 20 million tons, accounting for about 80% of China’s sepiolite reserves and 25% of the world’s reserves. It has 16 kilometers of sea The meerschaum ore belt is the largest meerschaum ore concentration area in the country, and it is a veritable "sepiolite capital".
Sepiolite has the characteristics of large reserves, no asbestos, small natural particles, large specific surface, strong adsorption capacity, good thermal stability, strong loadability, etc. It is used for preparing waste gas purification, wastewater purification, soil remediation, green building materials, etc. Good raw material for foam stone functional materials. The rational development and utilization of sepiolite is important in the field of environmental management, green building materials, antibacterial materials, photocatalytic purification materials, petroleum catalysts, deep-sea drilling mud, lithium ion battery materials, ceramics, medical and cosmetics. significance.
In order to build the world`s most influential sepiolite industry listed company and build the world`s largest sepiolite industrial base, XT City plans to cover an area of 1,294 acres, with an estimated investment of 3.6 billion yuan to build a sepiolite new material technology industrial park. Has begun to take shape.
XTJT has China's first sepiolite industry research institute, China's first sepiolite high-purity (above 95%) purification production line, China's industry standard for sepiolite research and development and use, and China's only sepiolite functional material engineering technology research center.
