fiber-reinforced composites
Fiber-reinforced composites are materials made by combining a polymer matrix with strong fibers, such as glass, carbon, or aramid. These fibers provide enhanced strength and stiffness, making the composite lightweight yet durable. This combination allows for improved performance in various applications, including automotive, aerospace, and construction.
The manufacturing process typically involves embedding the fibers into the resin, which hardens to form a solid structure. This results in a material that can withstand high stress and resist environmental factors. Fiber-reinforced composites are increasingly popular due to their versatility and ability to be tailored for specific uses.
