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.
