The filler effect of xonotlite (6CaO.6SiO 2 .H 2 O; needle‐shaped) on dynamic mechanical properties, such as storage modulus ( E ′), loss modulus ( E ″), and tan δ was studied for the PVC—xonotlite composite system. And the properties of the system containing mechanically or chemically disaggregated particle of xonotlite were compared with those of the system‐filled aggregates. The dynamic mechanical properties obviously depends on the dispersion condition of xonotlite particle. The aggregates of xonotlite produces a remarkably high modulus, an increase in T g , and a decrease in mechanical damping near T g in the system. On the other hand, the disaggregates, especially the chemical disaggregate one, bring softer or more rubbery properties in these systems. The interaction between matrix and filler was the strongest in the aggregates system and decreases in the order, mechanical disaggregates system, chemical disaggregates system.
