Popis:	As increase in the use of eco-friendly, natural fibers are used for the reinforcement of polymer composites which has the light weight and low-cost polymer composites with better mechanical properties which offers exceptional properties over glass fiber. In this work, Basalt fiber reinforced Polypropylene (PP) laminated composite was manufactured by the compression moulding process. The variations of impact, flexural and compression strength and modules of the composite according to the number of basalt fiber layers were investigated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) conducted on the surface of the composite reveal the superior interfacial linkage between the basalt fiber and PP matrix. Hence, this offers a comprehensive discussion on synthesis and characterization of basalt fiber with polypropylene reinforced laminated thermoplastic composite.
