Basalt fiber twisted yarn is a type of continuous basalt fiber product that is manufactured by twisting multiple filaments of basalt fiber together to form a cohesive strand or yarn. Basalt fibers are derived from natural volcanic rock, which is melted at high temperatures (approximately 1,400°C to 1,600°C) and then extruded into fine continuous filaments. These filaments are then gathered and twisted together using specialized textile machinery to produce twisted yarns. The twisting process enhances the yarn’s cohesion, durability, and flexibility, allowing for more efficient handling and processing during textile manufacturing.

The primary role of twisting is to bind the individual basalt filaments more securely, improving their mechanical integrity and resilience during weaving, knitting, braiding, or other fabric-forming processes. Twisted yarns exhibit higher abrasion resistance and are easier to process into complex fabric structures compared to untwisted yarns. These properties make basalt fiber twisted yarns particularly suitable for applications in technical textiles, fire-resistant fabrics, insulation materials, and composite reinforcement.

Basalt fiber twisted yarns inherit all the beneficial characteristics of basalt fiber, including high tensile strength, excellent resistance to high temperatures, corrosion, UV radiation, and various chemicals. Typically, twisted basalt yarns offer tensile strength values in the range of 2.8 to 4.5 GPa and a modulus of elasticity from 85 to 95 GPa. The yarns also exhibit low elongation and high dimensional stability under load, which is crucial in structural applications.

One of the defining advantages of twisted yarns over their untwisted counterparts is their improved mechanical cohesion. Twisting enhances the fiber-to-fiber friction, ensuring that the individual filaments work together more effectively when subjected to stress. This results in more uniform load distribution and better resistance to fraying, which is particularly beneficial in textile processing and subsequent end-use applications.

Additionally, the twisted structure enhances the yarn's tactile properties, making it more pliable and manageable in various textile and composite forming techniques. This pliability is essential when manufacturing woven and knitted fabrics, ropes, braids, or cords. The improved handling characteristics also reduce the likelihood of filament breakage and material waste during production.

Basalt fiber twisted yarns are widely used across multiple industrial sectors, thanks to their unique blend of strength, flexibility, and environmental resistance. In the construction industry, twisted basalt yarns are often employed in the manufacturing of woven fabrics used for reinforcing concrete structures. These fabrics can be embedded into concrete to improve tensile strength, prevent cracking, and enhance overall structural integrity.

Another important application is in the production of fireproof textiles. Due to basalt’s non-combustible nature (melting point around 1,450°C), twisted basalt yarns are ideal for producing protective clothing and insulation materials for fire safety and thermal protection. These include firefighter suits, heat shields, furnace linings, and welding blankets. The twisted configuration contributes to the durability and performance of these textiles in high-stress environments.

In the realm of composites, basalt fiber twisted yarns are used to manufacture prepregs, mats, and woven reinforcements. These reinforcements are combined with resin matrices (e.g., epoxy, polyester, vinyl ester) to create high-performance composite materials. Twisted yarns are particularly advantageous in applications where the reinforcement needs to conform to complex shapes or where increased resistance to mechanical stress during processing is required.

Twisted basalt yarns are also being used to manufacture ropes, cables, and braids for marine, offshore, and aerospace applications. Their resistance to saltwater, thermal cycling, and harsh environmental conditions makes them superior alternatives to traditional synthetic fibers like nylon or polyester, particularly in environments where long service life and high reliability are essential.
