The basalt fibers/poly (lactic acid) composites, as a kind of green environment friendly materials, were prepared byvacuum perfusion method. The effect of silane coupling agent KH550 on the interface of BFs/PLA composites wasanalyzed. We observed the microstructure of the surface of BFs treated by silane KH550 and the interface of thecomposites, explored the chemical reaction among silane KH550, BFs and PLA. The silane KH550 succeeded in linkingBFs and PLA and enhanced the interfacial bonding strength between BFs and PLA matrix. The crystalline properties ofKH550-treated BFs/PLA composites were better than untreated BFs/PLA composites. The mechanical test suggestedthe silane KH550 had good effect on strengthening BFs/PLA composites.
