将玄武岩纤维加工成多轴经编纺织品

Processing basalt fibers into multiaxial and warp-knitted textiles

在全世界都聚焦于可持续发展和环境保护的当今,天然材料的需求量巨大,这种情况同样也适用于玄武岩纤维。玄武岩这种火山岩中包含多种不同的矿物质,并可广泛获得,超过40%的地壳就是由这种灰色的天然化石材料组成的。自20世纪60年代起,人们就开始研究将玄武岩加工成纤维的技术,但至今其工业化规模的应用才刚刚开始。事实上,玄武岩纤维产业即将兴起。玄武岩纤维巨大的应用潜力,使其可应用于包括从汽车领域、机械制造、建筑业到纺织工业等的不同部门。

In a world where the focus is on sustainability and environmental protection,natural materials are,of course,in high demand,and this also applies to basalt fibers.This volcanic rock contains a variety of different minerals and is widely available.More than 40%of the earth s crust is made from this gray,natural,fossil material.The processing of basalt into fibres has been researched since the 1960s,but it is only now on the verge of being used on an industrial scale.In fact,the basalt fibre sector is about to take off.A huge application potential is opening up to use basalt fibers in various industrial sectors-from the automotive sector,through machine building and the construction industry,to the textile industry.
