Tips on landscape boulders

The scientific name of landscape boulders is stone sculpture reinforced plastic. It uses stone sculpture and their products as reinforcing materials.

A composite material with synthetic resin as the matrix material. The concept of composite materials means that one material cannot meet the requirements of use, and two or more materials need to be combined together to form another material that can meet people's requirements, that is, composite materials. For example, although a single type of stone sculpture has high strength, the fibers are loose and can only bear tensile force, but cannot bear bending, shearing and compressive stress. It is not easy to make a fixed geometric shape and is a soft body. If they are bonded together with synthetic resin, they can be made into various hard products with fixed shapes, which can withstand not only tensile stress, but also bending, compression and shear stress. This makes up the stone sculpture-reinforced plastic matrix composite.

Because its strength is equivalent to steel, it also contains stone carving components, and it also has the color, shape, corrosion resistance, electrical insulation, heat insulation and other properties of stone carving. Like stone carving, this easy-to-understand name "landscape boulders" has historically been formed. "This term was proposed by Comrade Lai Jifa, the former Minister of the Ministry of Building Materials Industry, in 1958. It was expanded from the building materials system to the whole country. The meaning of landscape boulders refers to reinforced plastics with stone sculpture as reinforcing materials and synthetic resins as binders. Foreign countries It is called stone sculpture reinforced plastic. With the development of my country's landscape boulders industry, as plastic-based reinforcing materials, it has expanded from stone carving to carbon fiber, boron fiber, aramid fiber, alumina fiber and silicon carbide fiber. Undoubtedly, reinforced plastics made of these new fibers , are some high-performance fiber-reinforced composite materials, which cannot be summarized by the common name of landscape boulders.
Taking into account the historical origin and development, landscape boulders composite materials are usually used, so this name is more comprehensive.
