Basalt composites continue to gain traction. Basalt roving offers excellent adaptability to specific customer requirements. Filament winding can produce basalt fiber hollow containers meeting geometric, strength, and operational condition requirements.
During the filament winding process, continuous resin-impregnated reinforcement bundles are wound onto a mandrel under tension, creating a part. Once cured, the part can be removed or left inside as part of the component.
Basalt roving offers superior physical, mechanical, and chemical properties, including resistance to corrosion, erosion, and magnetization, dielectric properties, and stray current conduction prevention.
It can withstand extreme temperatures (-260°C to +700°C), vibration, and mechanical impacts. Basalt roving performance surpasses fiberglass and can rival carbon fiber performance but at a much lower cost, making it an effective material for composite manufacturing.
This technology offers broad prospects for low-temperature storage and compressed gas transportation, which global composite manufacturers and end users appreciate.
