        Market Definition

        Composites are materials that are created by combining two or more different constituents with different physical or chemical qualities to produce a new material with improved properties. These components usually consist of a matrix material (such as a polymer, metal, or ceramic) embedded with a reinforcement material (such as fibers or particles). The matrix material keeps the reinforcement in place and shields it from the elements, while the reinforcement material gives strength, stiffness, and other mechanical qualities. Composites have many benefits, such as a high strength-to-weight ratio, resistance to corrosion, durability, and flexibility in design, which makes them ideal for a variety of uses in a wide range of industries, including renewable energy, aerospace, automotive, and construction.
