WEIGHT REDUCTION • Up to 75% lighter than steel; up to 25% lighter than aluminum • Better fuel economy for transportation • Simplified installation DESIGN FLEXIBILITY • Complex shapes less costly to produce than metal • Ability to tailor strength and stiffness in specific areas • Versatile aesthetic options for surface finish PART CONSOLIDATION • Easier installation and assembly with fewer parts • Simplified transport of finished goods • Fewer parts = reduced chance of failure Value that the U.S. composite materials market is expected to reach by 2022 $10.6B 50% Amount of weight reduction that advanced composites could bring to passenger cars, leading to 35% better fuel efficiency 7% CAGR that analyst firm Technavio forecasts the 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. THERMOPLASTIC The matrix material of a composite can be a thermoset or a thermoplastic THERMOSET THERMOPLASTIC A thermoset is a cross-linked polymer that cannot be reshaped after it’s formed, cured, and cooled. Advantages High temperature resistance, creep resistance, low viscosity, paintability, and fatigue resistance A thermoplastic is not cross-linked so it can be re-melted and reformed.
