Description:
Composites are materials consisting of several other materials, whereby all technical relevant properties are enhanced during the synthesis. Compounds for composites are mainly polymers, glasses, metals, ceramic materials, wood or other composites.
Depending on the kind of interconnection, one distinguishes between differend groups of composites:
- Fibre Reinforced Composites
- Laminates
- Dispersion Composites
Examples for composites:
- Fiber-Cement (Cement Asbestos)
- Reinforced Concrete
- Self-reinforced Thermoplastics
- Composite Panels (Plywood e.g.)
- Fibre-Plastics-Compounds
- Textile Composites
