  1. Composite material

    A composite material (also called a composition material or shortened to composite, which is the common name) is a material 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, differentiating composites from mixtures and solid solutions.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.

  1. composite material

    A composite material is a material made from two or more distinct substances which, when combined, retain their own individual characteristics while also producing a final material with different properties. These substances usually consist of a binder (matrix) and a reinforcement, designed to create a material with specific mechanical and physical attributes. Composite materials are typically used for buildings, bridges, and structures such as boat hulls, swimming pool panels, racing car bodies, shower stalls, bathtubs, and spacecraft.
