global medical composite materials market
will experience from 2016–2020
Fiber-reinforced polymer composites combine thermoset
or thermoplastic resins with fiber reinforcement, the resulting
product having substantially different properties than the
individual components.
They are used in many different
industries, from automotive and aerospace to infrastructure
and recreation.
Advantages
Recyclability, enhanced toughness, chemical
resistance, noise and vibration damping,
post-formability, and lower density
DURABILITY
STRENGTH
• Corrosion resistance for
marine and deep water
applications
• Improved shock
resistance with
aramid fibers
• Protection from shrapnel
for military barriers
• Structural performance in
aerospace and marine markets
• High tensile strength for
industrial applications
