Use of composite materials in daily life.

Our composites have expanded the manufacturing possibilities of virtually every industry. The composite material fulfils both requirements of maximum sensitivity and damping thanks to the combination of the stiff carbon fibres and low density rohacell foam. As the world leader in composite manufacturing ice uses a variety of composite materials to create high quality custom products of all shapes sizes and complexities. This is done to produce materials with desirable properties such as high compressive strength tensile strength flexibility and hardness the following are illustrative examples.

The same principle applies to steel in concrete woven fabrics. Composite materials emerged in the middle of the twentieth century as a promising class of engineering materials providing new prospects for modern technology. Below are a few examples of composite materials that we come in contact with on a daily basis in our homes. The high mechanical performance of the material strongly reduces the deformations normally encountered in traditional cone materials under loads and so prevents sounds colouration.

Many companies worldwide rely on composites in their everyday business and find no other material comparable. Providing a lightweight corrosion resistant alternative to steel. A composite material is one material reenforced with another such as resins reenforced with glass fibers carbon fibre or kevlar. A composite material is any material made by combining two or more materials in a structure whereby materials remain separate.

Without this valuable material asset company production would suffer. By mixing multiple materials together manufacturers can combine the best properties of each base component. Composites have become a necessity for many companies throughout the world. Examples of composites can be seen day in and day out and surprisingly they can be found all throughout the house.

Companies like boeing use composite materials in many of their aircraft parts. In this first chapter a basic overview of structural materials is given before moving on to an overview of composite. A composite material also called a composition material or shortened to composite which is the common name is a material 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.
