Clothes Made Of Stone Can Withstand High Temperatures At 700 Degrees Centigrade.

Stone can be used to make concrete, and can be used as industrial raw material.

With curiosity, the reporter came to the West District of the former two electrical machinery factory in Fuping group, Taiping District, Fuxin.

In the production workshop,

Tang Yunlong, a chief engineer who directs production, said: "basalt continuous fiber product is an inorganic non-metallic fiber material.

We crushed the basalt and fused it with electricity, and then peeled off a 7 to 13 micron filament through the built-in equipment and bundled them together through a cluster.

These fibers can produce basalt fiber (spinning) yarn, basalt fiber reinforced bar and other products according to market demand. Because they have strong tensile and acid resistance, they can be used in the temperature range from -260 to 700 degrees. They are a new resource saving and environment-friendly material with low input, high output, low energy consumption, low emission, recycling and sustainable development. They are called new materials in twenty-first Century.

Besides making clothes, basalt continuous fibers can also be used as gas pipes.

"We often need a lot of manpower in the installation of iron gas pipes, so we must be very careful to avoid sparks generated by friction.

Now, the pipes made of basalt fiber can lift two people and install them more safely. "

It is understood that Fuxing Group began to study and investigate basalt fiber projects in 2007.

In two years, the group used the basalt of Haizhou mine as raw material to cooperate with the Research Institute of related building materials.

At present, 5 sets of 200 hole production furnace 6 and 400 hole production furnace have been installed, producing 7 to 13 microns of basalt fiber 500 tons per year.

After being listed, the products are sold abroad as well as locally.

"Last year, our export orders were 36 tons, up to 70 tons this year, and the market prospect is very good."

Tang Yunlong said.

At present, the factory is studying new automatic cluster equipment to improve production efficiency and operation cost.

At the same time, as a key project that Fuxin has carefully built and actively nurtured to continue to replace the industry and develop circular economy, basalt fiber project has an important role for Fugu group to accelerate the development of non coal industry, build new pillar industries, increase the total economic volume, achieve sustainable development, accelerate and promote the economic pformation of Fuxin.
