Composites are considered to be combinations of materials differing in composition or form on a macroscale. The constituents retain their identities in the composite; that is, they do not dissolve or otherwise merge completely into each other although they act in concert. Normally, the components can be physically identified and exhibit an interface between one another.
Combination of several materials to create one with special characteristics.
Substance derived by combining two or more materials such as glass fibers and epoxy
A type of aircraft structure that generally uses plastic materials with a strengthening agent, such as epoxy li.e. Carbongraphite/Kevlar~/fiberglass).
strong lightweight material developed in the laboratory; fibers of more than one kind are bonded together chemically
a combination of two or more materials which retain their identities as they act in concert
a combination of two or more separate materials
a material that is made from several different elements
Product made by combining two or more dissimilar materials such as fibers and resins to create a product with exceptional structural properties not present in the original materials.
A combination of two or more materials (reinforcing elements, fillers, and composite matrix binder), differing in form or composition on a macro scale. The constituents retain their identities; that is, they do not dissolve or merge completely into one another although they act in concert. Normally, the components can be physically identified and exhibit an interface between one another.
A substance comprised of more than one kind of fabric, such as graphite fibers embedded in an organic resin.
Composite materials (or composites for short) are engineered materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties and which remain separate and distinct within the finished structure.
