I-fiber ye-Sepiolite luhlobo lwe-fiber yendalo ye-mineral, eyintlobo ye-fibrous ye-sepiolite mineral, ebizwa ngokuba yi-α - sepiolite.I-Sepiolite luhlobo lwe-layer chain silicate mineral.Kwisakhiwo se-sepiolite, umaleko we-magnesia octahedron uxutywe phakathi kweetetrahedron ezimbini ze-silicon oksijini, zenza uhlobo lwe-2: 1 uhlobo lweyunithi yesakhiwo.I-tetrahedral layer iyaqhubeka kwaye isalathiso se-oksijini esebenzayo kuluhlu luguqulwa ngezikhathi ezithile.I-octahedral layer yenza umjelo olungelelaniswe ngokuhlukileyo phakathi kwamaleko aphezulu nangaphantsi.I-channel orientation ihambelana ne-fiber axis, ivumela iimolekyuli zamanzi, ii-cations zetsimbi, ii-molecule ezincinci ze-organic kunye nokunye ukungena.I-Sepiolite inokumelana nobushushu obuhle.I-Sepiolite nayo inotshintshiselwano oluhle lwe-ion kunye neempawu ze-catalytic, kunye nokumelana nokugqwala, ukuxhathisa kwi-radiation, ukugquma, ukugquma ubushushu kunye nezinye iimpawu ezigqwesileyo, ngakumbi i-Si Oh kwisakhiwo sayo inokusabela ngokuthe ngqo kunye ne-organics ukuvelisa i-organic mineral derivatives.

I-Sepiolite isetyenziswa ngokubanzi kwiinkalo zokuhlanjululwa, ukuqhutyelwa kwe-superfine kunye nokuguqulwa.I-Sepiolite ingasetyenziselwa i-adsorbent, i-purifier, i-deodorant, i-agent yokuqinisa, i-agent yokumisa, i-agent ye-thixotropic, i-filler, njl njl kunyango lwamanzi, i-catalysis, i-rubber, i-coating, i-chemical fertilizer, i-feed kunye namanye amashishini.Ukongeza, i-sepiolite inokumelana netyuwa elungileyo kunye nokumelana nobushushu obuphezulu, ngoko ke inokusetyenziswa njengomgangatho ophezulu wokugrumba udaka kwi-oyile, ukugrumba i-geothermal kunye neminye imiba.

Ifayibha ye-Sepiolite yeye-fiber yamaminerali, efumaneka kwi-fibrous mineral rock.Izixhobo zayo eziphambili ziyi-oxides ezahlukahlukeneyo, ezifana ne-silica, i-alumina, i-magnesium oxide, njl.i-aluminium silicate fiber, i-glass fiber, i-gypsum fiber, i-carbon fiber, njl.
