Silicon carbon black (SiCB), a kind of biomass carbon material, is a kind of pyrolysis ash prepared by anoxic pyrolysis of rice husk. When filled as an inorganic reinforcement in the composite material basalt fiber (BF) reinforced polyamide 6 (PA6), it has synergetic effect with the POE‐g‐MAH elastomer. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis shows that KSiCB plays a role of heterogeneous nucleation in the composite material, accelerates the nucleation and crystallization speed of PA6, and can increase the strength and rigidity of the composite material. Scanning electron microscope observation of the fracture surface of the composite material shows that the addition of KSiCB can effectively “pin” and inhibit crack propagation. When the content of KSiCB is 2.5 phr, the tensile strength of the composite material KSiCB/POE‐g‐MAH/PA6(BF) reaches a maximum of 125.194 MPa, the tensile modulus is 2791.257 MPa, the bending strength reaches 192.034 MPa, and the impact toughness reaches 23.42 kJ/m 2 .
