When
product designers need the advantages of multiple materials to meet product
design needs, composite materials that combine the characteristics of two or
more different materials are the best choice. In fact, we can often see
composite materials in several aspects of our daily lives. For example, tires
are made of rubber and carbon black, and concrete is made of cement and sand.
The purpose of having a composite is usually to take advantage of the
characteristics of different materials. To make up for any shortcomings, after
selecting one certain material to act as a matrix, more than one other material
will be added as a reinforcement. Soo in simple terms, the composite material
is composed of a base material and a reinforcement.
Take
glass fiber, as an example. It has very good tensile strength and contains
nylon, which is a highly temperature-resistant polymer. Therefore, composite
materials with nylon as the base material and glass fiber as the reinforcing
material have the dual characteristics of high temperature resistance and
impact resistance. Additionally, It is worth mentioning that glass fiber can
also be combined with a variety of different base materials like ABS, PP, PBT
and PTT, and the resulting composite materials will then have different
characteristics.
When
you consider thermal resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, heat
resistance, and other characteristics of the product at the early stage of the
design, all you have to do is inform Chain-Ray of your needs, and we will try
our best to find the most suitable composite material for you.
