The composite material can be defined as a mixture of two or more mechanically separable material that when combined give properties superior to the properties of the individual components. Composite are widely used in a variety of items, from baths, pools, to kit cars, boats and aircraft.
Composites have many advantages and if apply effectively, can provide significant benefits over more common materials and processes such as metal fabrication.
The most common advantages that composite products offer are:
- Lightweight structures that are strong and stiff;
- The ability to manufacture very complex shapes as single parts;
- Good resistance to corrosion;
- Structures that can be repaired easily.
