What is composites?

Composites are materials made from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties that, when combined, produce a material with characteristics different from the individual components. They are commonly used in aerospace, automotive, and construction industries due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, stiffness, and corrosion resistance. Common examples include fiberglass (glass fibers in a polymer matrix) and carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs).
