Practical Applications of The Most Important Products for The Manufacture of Basalt Fibers And Yarns "A Case Study of Syrian Basalt Textiles"

"A Case Study of Syrian Basalt Textiles"

Abstract

Basalt fibers and yarns resulting from the melting of natural basalt rocks at high temperatures ranging from (1400-1650 C˚) compared to other synthetic

fibers such as: (carbon fibers, aramid fibers, glass fibers, asbestos fibers, etc.) is the most promising future material for many from different applications, as the global market for basalt fibers

and yarns began to grow very rapidly due to their low costs and their distinctive technical and technical properties, so this research came to shed light on the practical applications of the most important products for manufacturing basalt fibers and yarns.

This research, according to the researcher's knowledge, is considered one of the first studies to study some of the properties of Syrian basalt textiles (normal textiles "Plain Weave"), by conducting several tests

on it, such as: air permeability test, explosion force test, and tensile forces test for basalt textiles and comparing them with other textiles. Aramid fibers and mixed textiles (Basalt / Aramid), which showed the superiority of basalt textiles, in addition to having a high explosion resistance up to 3800 (k. pas) and a high air permeability up to 508.33 (m/s), so that the results of this research are an initial start for the rest of the researchers in this field in order to benefit from them and work on developing and describing them more accurately.
