The results of the investigation have proved that applying constructions using basalt fiber is highly promising for prosthetic dentistry practice.

Basalt fiber is filling increasingly more application niches owing to its properties while forcing out sometimes less strong glass fiber,sometimes more expensive carbon fiber.

In order to avoid any interfacial reactions in the basalt fiber reinforced metal matrix composites, the basalt fibers were coated with copper.

A unique communication platform awaits entrepreneurs, investors, scientists and developers from the composite industry, who are ready to overturn preconceptions about basalt fiber and its features in almost all applications.

The paper aims to evaluate the effect of different combinations of basalt fibres on the mechanical properties of concrete, as well as identify the best basalt fibre length and content that have the optimum influence on concrete.

This study is conducted in order to get more insight on the effect of thermal load on mechanical performance of basalt fibers in comparison to E-glass and carbon fibers.

Researchers working at University of Portsmouth’s School of Engineering came to the decision that composite materials produced from a mixture of natural and basalt fibers have high mechanical strength.

A famous Canada-based kayak paddles manufacturer Nimbus Рaddles included hybrid paddles made from carbon and basalt fibers in the product range.

The application of basalt fibers are possible in many areas thanks to its multiple and good properties. It exhibits excellent resistance to alkalis, similar to glass fiber, at a much lower cost than carbon and aramid fibers.

Paris saw another huge composite event: the 53rd JEC World 2018 which featured basalt composites and fiber in a broader range than the last year’s show.
