Basalt Fiber Surface Modification for Improved Interaction With Polyamide‐6 for High‐Performance Automotive Applications

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Amino‐silane treatment improves the basalt fiber–PA6 interface, enhancing composite performance. ABSTRACT Basalt fiber‐reinforced polymer (BFRP) composites have emerged as sustainable alternatives to glass fiber (GF) composites, but their performance is often controlled by the quality of the fiber–matrix adhesion.
