Basalt fiber is highly durable fiber composite widely used across plumbing, roofing, and flooring applications

 

Basalt fiber is a relatively new material designed for use in fiberboards. Basalt is a silicate mineral found in nature, with the chemical composition SiO2 (silicon dioxide) and iron (commonly known as oxygen). Currently, Basalt Fiber is primarily used for the application of reinforced composites. This is because it is much stronger and more durable than natural fiber composites, and is also able to withstand the harsh conditions of outdoor life. It has an open weave structure, which allows the molecules to flow more easily through it; its chemical structure is conducive to the constructive assembly of polymer chains when bonded together. These attributes make it ideal for use in bumpers, side steps, paneling, flooring, and shelving.


 

Basalt is known for its wide range of beneficial properties, such as resistance to corrosion, heat, electricity, chemicals, and fire. The thermal properties it possesses are unique; it is even able to resist the impact of tectonic shifts, earthquakes, and vibrations. It is also thermally inert, which means that it does not change temperature even when exposed to extreme temperatures. All of these properties make Basalt Fiber an excellent choice for use in plumbing, roofing, and flooring applications. In addition to all of these beneficial characteristics, it has become widely used as an anti-corrosion and rust agent, providing extensive protection to automobiles, boats, and even houses.

Basalt fiber is a metal that has a very unique chemical make-up that consists of copper, silver, titanium, ruthenium, and iron alloys. Due to the chemical makeup of these alloys, there is a distinct lack of elasticity or ability to expand and contract in reaction to external stress. Because of this, many experts believe that basalt materials formed by the combination of silica and aluminum in an extremely viscous solution have a nearly infinite strength-to-weight ratio.

Increasing Initiatives to Digitalize the Healthcare Sector Is Expected To Boost Demand for Electronic Medical Records

Image
  An electronic medical record (EMR) is essentially a systematized collation of individual patient and family health information in an electronic format. This information is then shared across several health care locations. This will save time, money and provide patients with more comprehensive care. Increasing initiatives to digitalize the healthcare sector is expected to boost demand for EMR. For instance, in November 2019, Germany introduced Digital Supply Act to digitalize healthcare. Under the new legislation, doctors will be able to prescribe digital health apps to patients, which can be reimbursed by the country’s statutory health insurance. There are several advantages to using EMR. The main advantage is that you do not need to wait for the paper records to go through the paper processing before you can use them. Another advantage to electronic medical records is that they allow for greater privacy. Electronic health records allow only the doctor to see these rec

What are various pigmented lesions treatment available in market today?

Image
  Pigmented Lesion is a form of skin malady. It is the inflammation of a dermis layer with melanin; the latter producing and maintaining color in the skin. Pigmented lesions or plaques develop in various parts of the body mostly in areas like the palms, the soles of the feet, the ears, and even the genitalia. The pigmentation usually appears as darker spots on the affected area and fades gradually. Pigmentation problems can occur at any age. Pigmented lesion treatment involves the use of a specialized cream to provide the patient with relief from the effects of the sun and to reduce the pigmentation. Although this type of treatment can be performed on almost any area of the body, the most popular locations are those areas that are heavily exposed to the sun. Pigmented lesions treatment also used the treatment of patients who suffer from acne, even though this is not the main goal of this treatment. There are some advantages to laser treatment including less scarring and

Increase In Oil Production and Exploration Activities Is Creating a Need for Oilfield Chemicals

Image
  Chemicals used in oil and gas extraction operations are known as oilfield chemicals. Oilfield chemicals find applications in workover & completion, production chemicals, well stimulation, drilling fluids, enhanced oil recovery, and cementing. Oilfield chemicals are used to improve the efficiency and productivity of the petroleum refining and oil drilling process and to achieve optimum performance with effective recovery. Oilfield chemicals facilitate the maintenance of a well-operated oil field, reducing the cost of delays and stops during the drilling process.    Oilfield chemicals are used at various stages during the production of the oil and gas as drilling additives, corrosion inhibitors, cementing super plasticizers, demulsifiers and dispersants, and repair systems for cementing failures. Moreover, these chemicals are also used to explore natural resources. With the increasing number of exploration activities around the world, the demand for oilfield chemicals is increasi
