High-performance composite panel and manufacturing method

Abstract

A composite product includes basalt fibers and a liquid polymer resin mixed with a curing agent and infused into the basalt fibers. A method of making the composite product includes mixing a liquid polymer resin with a curing agent to form a resin matrix; infusing the resin matrix into basalt fibers; and curing the basalt fibers infused with the resin matrix to form the composite product. The method may further include adding an additive including at least one of graphene or graphite to the liquid polymer resin and the curing agent, and mixing the additive with them to form the resin matrix which is infused into the basalt fibers. It may further include weighing the additive, at about 0.1% to 0.3% of a weight of the liquid polymer resin and curing agent, to be added to the liquid polymer resin and curing agent.
