The use of mineral products as additives is widespread in industrial manufacturing. Historically, mineral fillers were used to extend other raw materials and cut costs. Today, specific minerals are frequently added to products to enhance their functionality and/or aesthetic qualities. With their increasing industrial use, mineral Fillers and nanoscale minerals continue to grow in technological importance. First presented at SME's 2003 Functional fillers and Nanoscale Minerals Symposium, the 26 papers in this compilation include contributions by many leading researchers and industrial users of mineral and mineral-based fillers. This book presents the most current thinking on the processing and manufacture of common functional fillers, including discussions on their structure, characterization, chemical and physical properties, and their modification and optimization for industrial applications. Written for mineral suppliers, industrial users of mineral fillers, and those concerned with new trends in mineral processing technology, this resource provides valuable insight into recent technological advances in mineral processing as well as new applications for mineral fillers. Specific topics include the general purification, synthesis, modification, and characterization of fillers and nanofillers; surface modification; matrix interactions; interfaces; adhesion; filled systems; dispersion and compounding; and effects of fillers on mechanical, electrical, thermal stability, and other properties.
