Advances of Study on the Developments and Physical Properties of Composite Materials

Article Preview

Abstract:

Composite materials (also called composition materials or shortened to 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. The individual components remain separate and distinct within the finished structure. The new material may be preferred for many reasons: common examples include materials which are stronger, lighter or less expensive when compared to traditional materials. Composite materials are generally used for buildings, bridges and structures. The most advanced examples perform routinely on spacecraft in demanding environments.
