OSCHATZ-GLAS Ein Unternehmen der P-D Group

Less expensive than carbon fibre Higher tensile strength that glass fibers Basalt’s operating temperature is ~650 °C (1,202 °F) compared to ~460 °C (860 °F) for E-glass Basalt’s softening temperature is ~1,050 °C (1,922 °F), compared to ~600 °C (1,112 °F) for E-glass. The non-corrosive properties of basalt fiber make it impervious to attacks from alkali, chemicals, or water produced with up to 8-shafts variety of constructions (weave design, basis weight, thickness) bidirectional and unidirectional design orientation fabric widths up to 410 cm (161 inches) leno selvage standard or with adhesive edge high design flexibility with corresponding strength and stiffness basis weight range of 200 to 1500 g/m² (5.9 to 44.3 oz/yd²) large roll lengths, up to 2,000 Kg (4,410 pounds) for continuous processing suitable for unsaturated polyester (UP), epoxy (EP) and vinyl ester (VE) resins 7 facts about basalt WHY BASALT ? These properties make basalt fibres versatile for use in the construction industry as well as fibre reinforcements for markets like automotive, boat building and other applications. BASALT FABRICS Basalt is resistant to attack by acids, salts, and other corrosive substances Basalt has superior dielectric properties over E- glass, S-glass, aramid and quartz
