The ultimate goal of Mars exploration is to construct a Mars base. In particular, it is necessary to prepare fibres by using Martian soil as a raw material. High-strength "Martian glass fibres" can be used to reinforce composite materials to meet the requirements of high-strength functional materials in base construction. Owing to the wide variation in MgO content in Martian soil, in this study, the effects of MgO on the structure, strength and acid resistance of "Martian glass and glass fibres" were investigated. The preparation conditions and mechanical properties of simulated Martian soil fibre (SMSF) were studied via DSC, XRD, Raman, NMR, FT-IR and high-temperature rotational viscometry. The corrosion behaviour of MgO-SMSF in H2SO4 solution was subsequently studied via SEM/EDS. The results showed that MgO reduces the spinnability window and prevents the fibres from stretching continuously, and a threshold appears to exist at 10.89 % MgO. The viscosity of the melt decreased significantly, and the crystallization trend increased with MgO above the threshold. The fibre tensile strength showed a nonlinear relationship with a 22.85 % increase in the fibre tensile strength at 9.24 % MgO. SEM/EDS revealed that the surface of the SMSF formed a gel layer, and the mass retention of the MgO-SMSF in the H2SO4 solution reached 90.17 %. The corrosion of SMSF under acidic conditions was controlled by ion diffusion, with Mg+ and Ca+ diffusing to the fibre surface, resulting in nonuniform corrosion. Raman-based statistical structureproperty modelling further explains the impact of MgO-induced structural changes on the tensile strength and elastic modulus, with good agreement between the model predictions and measured values.
