A composite article is manufactured by employing known vacuum forming techniques with a dispersion including as the major solid constituent thereof an anhydrous crystalline mineral of acicular form, such as Wollastonite. At least 60%, and preferably 85%, by weight of the solid constituents of the dispersion comprise such a mineral. The mineral has an aspect ratio of at least 10 to 1, and preferably 20 to 1. The dispersion also includes a binder system, which may include starch, and/or colloidal silicon, and/or colloidal alumina, and/or latex. |
