Basalt Fiber Chopped Strands For Concrete Reinforcement
Product Introduction
Basalt Fiber Chopped Strands is a product made from continuous basalt fiber filaments or pre-treated fiber chopped into short pieces. The fibers are coated with a (silane) wetting agent. Basalt Fiber Strands are the material of choice for reinforcing thermoplastic resins and are also the best material for reinforcing concrete. Basalt is a high-performance volcanic rock component, and this special silicate gives basalt fibers excellent chemical resistance, with particular advantage of alkali resistance. Therefore, basalt fiber is an alternative to polypropylene (PP), polyacrylonitrile (PAN) for reinforcing cement concrete is an excellent material; is also an alternative to polyester fibers, lignin fibers, etc. used in asphalt concrete is very competitive products, can improve the high temperature stability of asphalt concrete, low-temperature resistance to cracking and resistance to fatigue and so on.

Applications
1. It is suitable for reinforcing thermoplastic resin, and is a high-quality material for manufacturing sheet molding compound (SMC), block molding compound (BMC) and dough molding compound (DMC).
2. Suitable for compounding with resin as reinforcing material for automobile, train and ship shells.
3. It is the preferred material for reinforcing cement concrete and asphalt concrete, and is used as reinforcing material for anti-seepage, anti-cracking and anti-pressure of hydroelectric dams and prolonging the service life of road pavement.
4. It can also be used in the condensation tower of thermal power plant and steam cement pipe of nuclear power plant.
5. Used for high temperature resistant needle felt: automobile sound-absorbing sheet, hot rolled steel, aluminum pipe, etc. used.
6. Needled felt base material; surface felt and roofing felt.
