Basalt fiber untwisted yarns are a specialized form of continuous basalt fiber products, characterized by the absence of twisting typically seen in conventional yarns. They are produced by melting crushed basalt rock at high temperatures (approximately 1,400°C to 1,600°C) and extruding the molten material through fine nozzles to form continuous filaments. These filaments are then assembled into parallel bundles without any twisting to form untwisted yarns. This product retains all the inherent properties of basalt fiber—high tensile strength, resistance to corrosion and heat, non-conductivity, and chemical stability—while offering specific advantages in textile and composite manufacturing applications due to its linear fiber orientation and uniform structure.
Untwisted yarns are generally used in the production of woven fabrics, unidirectional tapes, multiaxial fabrics, and other reinforcing textiles for composite materials. Their structure allows for better impregnation with resin systems and improved load transfer in composite applications, making them ideal for use in construction, aerospace, automotive, marine, and defense industries.
The structure of untwisted basalt yarns plays a critical role in their performance. By avoiding twist, the yarns maintain maximum linearity and fiber orientation, which translates to enhanced mechanical performance in the direction of the fibers. This is particularly beneficial in load-bearing applications where directional strength and stiffness are paramount. The absence of twist also allows for more uniform distribution of stress across the yarns when embedded in a matrix, reducing weak points and improving the overall performance of the composite structure.
Basalt fiber untwisted yarns typically exhibit tensile strengths in the range of 2.8 to 4.5 GPa and a modulus of elasticity between 85 and 95 GPa. These properties are comparable to, and often exceed, those of traditional glass fibers (such as E-glass), while offering additional benefits such as superior thermal and chemical resistance. Basalt fibers can operate in a wide temperature range, from -260°C to +700°C, and they remain dimensionally stable under thermal cycling, which makes untwisted yarns suitable for high-temperature applications.
In addition to mechanical strength, untwisted basalt yarns exhibit excellent resistance to environmental factors. They are non-flammable, do not emit toxic gases when exposed to fire, and are immune to biological degradation, UV radiation, and moisture. These properties ensure that products made with basalt untwisted yarns maintain their integrity and performance over long service lifespans, even in harsh operating environments.
In the construction sector, basalt fiber untwisted yarns are primarily used in the manufacture of reinforcement textiles. These textiles are utilized in composite reinforcements for concrete, cementitious overlays, and various structural elements. The untwisted nature of the yarns allows them to be woven into high-performance fabrics with excellent dimensional stability, which can then be used in reinforcing concrete panels, bridge decks, and load-bearing structural components.
A key application is in the fabrication of basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) rebar and grids. In these applications, untwisted yarns are used to produce unidirectional fabrics and mats that form the structural backbone of composite bars. These bars are lightweight, non-corrosive, and thermally stable, making them a favorable alternative to traditional steel rebar in corrosive or high-humidity environments, such as coastal and marine infrastructure.
Beyond traditional construction, untwisted basalt yarns are widely used in the production of structural composites in sectors like aerospace and automotive. Their high specific strength and modulus make them suitable for weight-sensitive applications, where replacing heavier materials with lighter basalt composites can improve fuel efficiency and performance. In marine environments, basalt composites are gaining popularity for hulls, decks, and other structural components due to their resistance to saltwater corrosion and thermal cycling.
Basalt untwisted yarns are also employed in the production of fire-resistant fabrics, insulation materials, and protective clothing. Their high melting point and non-flammable nature make them ideal for protective gear used by firefighters, military personnel, and industrial workers.
