Composite

By: Richard Hayward

What is Composite and what can it be used for?

A composite is an engineered material which is a combination of two or more materials which when physically combined exhibit greatly improved properties over the individual materials, glass fibres provide the structural properties and the thermosetting resin provides the matrix to hold the fibres, additional components, such as pigments, fillers, and other additives can be added to modify or enhance the composites performance.

Composite materials offer unique advantages over more conventional materials, higher mechanical properties such as flexural strength, flex modulus, tensile strength, and compressive strength, higher impact resistance, and a greater resistance to change of shape and dimensional shift due to temperature and the passage of time, further more, composites offer low thermal conductivity and thermal expansion, also,

Composite materials has few constrains or design limitations, the typical properties of this modern day material allow it to be easily moulded or fabricated into products of any size, shape, or colour, yet these fantastic results can be achieved at a competitively low cost when compared with other more conventional materials, further more,

Composite moulded components can be light weight, strong, with low maintenance requirements, and can be manufactured to meet specific requirements like fire- retardantcy, chemical-resistant, or be resilient to environmental extremes, in short this outstanding modern day composite material offers great potential for designers, architects, and end-uses alike, pushing the design boundaries further, here are a few examples of composite moulded applications,

Construction, architectural facades, internal & external cladding, canopies and columns, domed structures, bespoke building features, and much more…..
Leisure, water slides, theme park rides, play equipment, swimming pool liners and much more……..
Marine, boat hulls and other components, ship parts, life raft enclosures, pontoons, and much more….
Automotive, body shells, spoilers, body kits, truck wind deflectors, trailer shells, and much more….
Aerospace, fuselages, cowling, aircraft components, micro-lights, and much more….
Bespoke, enclosures, buildings, furniture, housings, specialist applications and much …

So as you can see, composite materials are widely used within all industry sectors and can deliver great results, so when you look at your next project, consider composite materials as your material of choice…
