market size?[edit]

What's the current market? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 52.129.8.49 (talk) 18:17, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some questions[edit]

The article must become bigger. I have some questions: 1-I never saw nothing made of basalt fiber to sell. Why? 2-Is basalt fiber used for helmets and armor? 3-If the price is the same as fiberglass, why more resistence, why not use more basalt fiber? 4-Is there American production of this fiber?

Specific strength[edit]

Instead of to write "specific tenacity" the article must be Specific strength? Agre22 (talk) 00:23, 23 November 2009 (UTC)agre22[reply]

List of manufacturers[edit]

I've been adding some information to the page. As there is only a handful of basalt fiber manufacturers in the world, I researched a list of those I could find and added it to the page, but this was clearly not to the liking of an editor, and thus the manufacturer list has been removed from the page. As this is relative information of some value, is there any interest for a specific page with this the list of manufacturers, or should I forget about this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ragnarsson (talk • contribs) 09:41, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Inconsistent properties[edit]

The two property tables are grossly inconsistent. 71.197.166.72 (talk) 11:16, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
