Fibers have been used to improve tile flexural performance of reinforced concrete. Therefore many different kinds of fibers have been developed and tested to reinforcing concrete. Basalt fiber is one of the recently developed materials for this purpose. Basalt fiber produced from this basalt raw material has high initial strength and durability. But, the main advantages of the basalt fiber are resistance to high operating temperatures and lower modulus and chemical resistance compared to fiberglass. Also basalt fiber may be consumed as a potential replacement for expensive carbon fibers.

현무암섬유는 높은 인장강도와 콘크리트와 유사한 밀도를 갖기 때문에 콘크리트 보강 섬유로서 장점을 갖고 있다. 이 연구에서는 현무암섬유의 부착 특성과 섬유 배향각에 따른 현무암섬유의 인장 강도 특성을 조사하였다. 이를 위하여 현무암섬유와 폴리비닐알코올섬유에 대한 섬유 인발 실험을 수행하였고, 현무암, 폴리비닐알코올, 폴리에틸렌섬유에 대하여 섬유 배향각에 따른 인장 강도를 측정하였다. 실험 결과 현무암섬유의 화학적 부착, 마찰 부착, 미끌림 경화 계수는 폴리비닐알코올섬유와 비교하여 각각 1.88, 1.03, 0.24배로 나타났다. 현무암섬유의 배향각에 따른 강도 감소 계수는 폴리비닐알코올섬유의 9배, 폴리에틸렌섬유의 3배로 나타났다.

Basalt originates from volcanic magma and flood volcanoes, a very hot fluid or semifluid material under the earth's crust, solidified in the open air. Basalt is a common term used for a variety of volcanic rocks, which are gray, dark in colour, formed from the molten lava after solidification. Recently, attention has been devoted to continuous basalt fibers (CBF) whose primary advantage consists in their low cost, good resistance to acids and solvents, and good thermal stability. In order to investigate reinforcement effect, this paper did FEM analysis with shell element. The result were as follows; BCF deck plate did elastic behavior to 450 kN, reinforcement effect of basalt fiber (BF) was less. But BCF's perpendicular deflection occurred little about 23 mm comparing with RC deck plate in load 627 kN. Stiffness was very improved by basalt fiber reinforcement.

본 연구에서는 현무암섬유의 계면을 황산과 과산화수소로 처리하고 섬유 배향각을 $0^{\circ}$, $0^{\circ}/90^{\circ}$, $0^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}$로 달리하여 현무암섬유 에폭시 강화 복합재료의 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해서 살펴보았다. 기계적 특성은 층간 전단강도(ILSS)와 파괴인성 요소 중 임계응력세기인자($K_{IC}$) 측정을 통하여 고찰하였으며, 섬유의 표면미세구조 변화와 복합재료의 파단면은 주사전자현미경(SEM)으로 관찰하였다. 또한 섬유표면에 계면처리의 여부를 확인하기 위하여 적외선 분광법(FTIR)과 X-선 광전자 분광법(XPS)을 분석하였다. 실험결과 계면처리한 섬유 표면의 -OH 기(hydroxyl)가 증가됨을 확인하였다. 계면처리한 후의 기계적 특성이 계면처리 전의 기계적 특성보다 약 ~100% 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 표면처리에 의해 섬유와 에폭시 수지 매트릭스 사이의 계면결합력을 증가시킨 것으로 판단된다.

In this paper the influence of fiber orientation of basalt and carbon inter-ply fabrics on the flexural properties of hybrid composite laminates was experimentally investigated. Four types of basalt/carbon/epoxy inter-ply hybrid composite laminates with varying angle ply orientation of reinforced basalt fiber and fixed orientation of carbon fiber were fabricated using hand lay-up technique. Three point bending test was performed according to ASTM 7264. The fracture surface analysis was carried out by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results obtained from the four laminates were compared. Lay-up pattern of $[0B/+30B/-30B/0C]_S$ exhibits the best properties in terms of flexural strength and flexural modulus. Scanning electron microscopy results on the fracture surface showed that the interfacial de-bonding between the fibers and epoxy resin is a dominant fracture mode for all fiber lay-up schemes.

Inorganic basalt fiber (BF) is a novel sort of commercial concrete fiber which is made with basalt rocks. Previous studies have not sufficiently handled the behavior of self-compacted concrete, at elevated temperature, containing basalt fiber. Present endeavor covers experimental work to examine the characteristics of this material at high temperature considering different fiber content and applied temperature. Different tests were carried out to measure the mechanical properties such as compressive strength (fc), modulus of elasticity (E), Poisson's ratio, splitting tensile strength (fsplit), flexural strength (fflex), and slant shear strength (fslant) of HSC and hybrid concrete. Gene expression programming (GEP) was employed to propose new constitutive relationships depending on experimental data. It was noticed from the testing records that there is no remarkable effect of BF on the Poisson's ratio and modulus of elasticity of self-compacted concrete. The flexural strength of basalt fiber self-compacted concrete was not sensitive to temperature in comparison to other mechanical properties of concrete. Fiber volume fraction of 0.25% was found to be the optimum to some extend according to degradation of strength. The proposed GEP models were in good matching with the experimental results.

Fracture energy is one of the key parameters reveal cracking resistance and fracture toughness of concrete. The main purpose of this study is to determine fracture behavior, mechanical properties and microstructural analysis of high strength basalt fiber reinforced concrete (HSFRC). For this purpose, three-point bending tests were performed on notched beams produced using HSFRCs with 12 mm and 24mm fiber length and 1, 2 and $3kg/m^3$ fiber content in order to determine the value of fracture energy. Fracture energies of the notched beam specimens were calculated by analyzing load versus crack mouth opining displacement curves by the help of RILEM proposal. The results show that the effects of basalt fiber content and fiber length on fracture energy are very significant. The splitting tensile and flexural strength of HSFRC increased with increasing fiber content whereas a slight drop in flexural strength was observed for the mixture with 24mm fiber length and $3kg/m^3$ fiber content. On the other hand, there was no significant effect of fiber addition on the compressive strength and modulus of elasticity of the mixtures. In addition, microstructural analysis of the three components; cement paste, aggregate and basalt fiber were performed based on the Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy examinations.

The objective of this research is to investigate the influence of material characteristic and design on to the electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding characteristics. Basalt glass fiber reinforced composite specimens with stainless fiber conductive filler were manufactured to perform the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness(SE) experiments. In order to reflection and absorb the specimen in electromagnetic fields, flanged coaxial transmission line sample holder was fabricated according to ASTM D 4935-89. Electromagnetic shielding effectiveness(EMSE) was measured quantitatively to examine the electromagnetic shielding characteristics of designed specimens. The result of EMI shielding experiments showed that maximum EMSE value of sandwich type specimens with GSG(basalt glass fiber/stainless fiber/basalt glass fiber) and SGS(stainless fiber/basalt glass fiber/stainless fiber) were 65dB and 80dB at a frequency of 1,500MHz, respectively.

현무암 단섬유로 강화시킨 시멘트 복합재료의 섬유장과 혼입률에 따른 인장강도와 굽힘강도의 변화를 고찰하였다. 인장 및 굽힘강도의 증가는 섬유장의 증가에 따른 효과보다는 섬유 혼입률의 증가가 더 큰 역할을 하였다. 또한 현무암 단섬유와 시멘트 사이의 우수한 계면 접착력은 물리적 성질의 향상에 좋은 영향을 미친다고 보여진다. 시멘트의 수화시 생성되는 알칼리 조건과 유사한 포화 $Ca(OH)_2$ 용액에서의 중량감소율을 관찰한 결과 현무암 단섬유는 3주 동안의 침지 후에도 매우 작은 중량감소율을 나타냈다.

The effect of basalt and polypropylene fibers on the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams is investigated in this paper. The compressive and tensile behaviors of the basalt concrete and polypropylene concrete cylinders are also investigated. Eight beams and 28 cylinders were made with different percentages of basalt and polypropylene fibers. The dosages of fiber were selected as 0.6%, 1.3%, and 2.5% of the total cement weight. Each type of fiber was mixed solely with the concrete mix. Basalt and polypropylene fibers are modern and cheap materials that can be used to improve the structural behavior of RC members. This research is designed to find the optimum percentage of basalt and polypropylene fibers for enhancing the flexural behavior of RC beams. Test results showed that the addition of basalt and polypropylene fibers in any dosage (0.6%, 1.3%, and 2.5%) can increase the flexural strength and displacement ductility index of the beams where the maximum enhancement was measured with 1.3% fibers. The maximum increments in the flexural strength and the displacement ductility index were 30.39% and 260% for the basalt fiber case, while the maximum improvement for the polypropylene fibers case was 55.5% and 230% compared to the control specimen. Finite element (FE) models were then developed in ABAQUS to predict the numerical behaviour of the tested beams. The FE models were able to predict the experimental behaviour with reasonable accuracy. This research confirms the efficiency of basalt and polypropylene fibers in enhancing the flexural behavior of RC beams, and it also suggests the optimum dosage of fibers.
