Basalt Fabric

Basalt fabric is a material created from the fibers of basalt rock, which is a type of volcanic rock. The process involves melting the rock at very high temperatures and then spinning it into fine, durable fibers. These fibers are then woven together to create a fabric.

Basalt fabric is known for its impressive strength, resistance to heat, and durability. It’s often used in various industries for making strong, heat-resistant materials. Its unique properties make it suitable for applications in construction, automotive, and even aerospace sectors.

What is Basalt Fabric？

Basalt cloth is a high-performance material derived from the fibers of basalt rock, a dark-colored, fine-grained, igneous rock. The creation of basalt cloth begins with the extraction of basalt rock, primarily found in volcanic regions. This rock is rich in minerals such as plagioclase, pyroxene, and olivine, giving it unique characteristics.

The manufacturing process involves melting the basalt rock at temperatures around 1400 to 1600 degrees Celsius. Once melted, the rock is extruded through small nozzles to create continuous basalt fibers. These fibers are exceptionally fine yet strong, and they possess a natural resistance to various environmental factors.

These basalt fibers are then processed into fabrics. The weaving process aligns the fibers in a way that maximizes their inherent strengths. The resulting fabric retains the remarkable properties of the basalt fibers, such as high tensile strength and durability.
