A Basalt-Based Profile with Polyurethane Coating

Abstract

The present invention relates to a basalt-based profile (100) comprising at least one basalt-based fiber (110), a resin (120) and a coated layer of polyurethane coating (200). The profile preferably being a plank (300) for a terrace, a building-facade, a roofing, for a footbridge or being a building element (400), such as a wall, a roof, a floor, or being a board for insulating heat/sound. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of manufacturing a basalt-based profile by providing basalt-based fiber, preferably from a coil (115), combining the basalt fiber with resin, preferably by immersion of the basalt-based fiber into a resin bath (125) or vacuum suction the resin into the fiber, inserting the fibers into a mould (145), heating the basalt-based fiber, pultruding, extruding, vacuum infusing, or additive manufacturing the basalt-based fiber, cutting the basalt-based fiber into a profile, coating the profile with polyurethane coating.
