How does the inclusion of basalt fibers enhance the fire resistance of WPC outdoor tree boxes?
The inclusion of basalt fibers significantly enhances the fire resistance of Wood-Plastic Composite (WPC) outdoor tree boxes. Basalt fibers, derived from volcanic rock, are naturally non-combustible and possess high thermal stability. When integrated into WPC, they act as a flame retardant by reducing heat transfer and slowing the spread of flames. This improves the material's ability to withstand high temperatures, making it safer for urban environments. Additionally, basalt fibers reinforce the structural integrity of WPC, ensuring durability without compromising aesthetics. Their eco-friendly nature further aligns with sustainable landscaping trends, making basalt-enhanced WPC tree boxes a superior choice for fire-prone areas.
