China is the only country has the borate mineral chambersite deposits in the world at present. It is of great theoretical and practical significance to develop and utilize raw Mn3B7O13Cl and synthetic nano- Mn3B7O13Cl, and study its microstructure and properties. This review provides an overview of the microstructure, photoluminescence, gamma ray irradiation and neutron irradiation properties, electromagnetic properties, anti-tumor, anti-bacterial properties, as well as friction and wear properties of Mn3B7O13Cl, which provides a theoretical basis for further development and application of Mn3B7O13Cl.}, title={Progress and Challenges in Microstructure and Properties of Borate Mineral Chambersite Nano-Mn3B7O13Cl: a Review}, type={Article}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/134456/AMM-2025-1-07-Xiong.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2025.152506}, keywords={Borate Mineral Chambersite, Mn3B7O13Cl, Microstructure, Photoluminescence, Electromagnetic Properties, Friction and Wear}, }
