Basalt Fiber UD Fabric is a composite material made from basalt fibers aligned in a single direction and held together with a polymer binder. This configuration leverages the intrinsic properties of basalt rock fibers, delivering a material that is both strong and durable. The unidirectional alignment of the fibers optimizes strength along the length of the fabric, making it highly efficient in reinforcing structures.
Feature:
High Mechanical Strength:
The unidirectional alignment of fibers ensures maximum strength in one direction, making the fabric especially resistant to stretching and breaking under tension.
Thermal Stability:
Basalt fiber maintains its integrity at temperatures up to 650°C, making it suitable for applications that experience high thermal loads.
Corrosion Resistance:
Unlike some metallic and other fibrous materials, basalt fiber UD fabric resists the effects of salts, alkalis, and acids, increasing its longevity in corrosive environments.
Environmental Resistance:
It is inherently resistant to UV radiation and moisture, preventing degradation over time when exposed to harsh weather conditions.
Lightweight:
Basalt fibers offer a significant strength-to-weight ratio, which is crucial in applications where reducing weight is essential.
Non-Conductive:
Basalt fiber is electrically non-conductive, making the UD fabric suitable for applications that require insulation from electrical currents.
Application:
Civil Engineering:
Used for reinforcing concrete or repairing and strengthening existing concrete structures, including bridges, buildings, and tunnels.
Automotive Industry:
Employed in the manufacturing of automotive components where strength, weight reduction, and thermal stability are required. This includes body panels and chassis components.
Aerospace:
Useful in the aerospace industry for lightweight and thermally stable components such as panels and structural reinforcements.
Sports Equipment:
Applied in the production of high-performance sports equipment like hockey sticks, bicycle frames, and surfboards, where weight reduction and high mechanical strength are critical.
Marine Applications:
Because of its corrosion resistance and strength, it is ideal for boat hulls and other marine structures.
