Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to an alkali-resistant mineral fiber usable as a reinforcing material in preparing calcium silicatecontaining molded articles and cement- or gypsum-containing molded articles, which comprises 35 to 50% by weight of silica; 5 to 35% by weight of iron oxide and/or manganese oxide; and 7 to 19% by weight of zirconium oxide as essential components.
