Newly green material in the 21st century – basalt fiber

Basalt as the green material in the 21th century is widely used in the building, road, and so on projects. Except for the basalt stones, the product that use the basalt as raw material as well, such as the basalt fiber roving.

Basalt fiber roving , Which use the natural volcano spewed rock as the raw material, put in the furnace after chopped, melt in 1450—1500℃ ,then go through the platinum rhodium bushing to get the continuous fiber. Basalt fiber roving is a direct yarn, which can be used directly, twisted or assembled.

Thanks to the high module/strength, shock resistance, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, thermal insulation, especially boundary that combine with the resin have high bonding strength, basalt roving can be used for winding, weaving and knitting kinds of composites prefab products.

Enclosed the popular application field as reference:
1. Winding pipeline, tank, and pressure vessels.
2. Knitting kinds of cloth, geotextile.
3. Repairing and consolidating of building, thermostability chopped strands roving of SMC, BMC, DMC, and chopped strands for road construction, concrete reinforce.
4. Used as resin composite reinforcement material etc.
5. Used for producing basalt fiber reinforcement rebar, rod, and anchor bolt, special-shaped rebar.
6. Used for producing basalt fiber profiles, like channel type, angle type, square tube, solid/hollow round tube, and so on.

There are now few factories in the world capable of producing basalt fiber, in Russia, Georgia, Ukraine, China, Ireland and Uzbekistan. We are one of China manufacturer, with continuous process innovation and production facilities upgrade, except for basalt fiber roving, we produce other basalt fiber products as well, like basalt fiber reinforcing rebar, basalt fiber geogrid mesh, fabric, rope, thermal insulation sleeve, mats and profiles.
