Composite.
Since the 1960s, the use of composite materials has been large and steady increasing.
Composite materials have a number of unique properties and thus have replaced traditional materials such as steel, wood and concrete within a number of areas.
Today, a wide range of products such as planes, ships, trains, silos, cars, bridges etc. are primarily made from composite materials.
Composite comes from the word compose.
Composite materials arise when two or more materials are being combined (physical, not chemical).
Thereby a new material is created with special, intended and superior qualities.
The technical qualities of the material is thus a function of the qualities and abilities of the components, combinations of the components (matrix, reinforcement, hardener, additives) and production-processes and conditions.
Known composite materials within thermoset plastic are; Fiberglass reinforced polyester, carbon fiber reinforced epoxy, Kevlar reinforced vinylester and nylon reinforced phenol.
The newest materials are Nano-composite.
