thermoplastic composites
Thermoplastic composites are materials made by reinforcing plastic (thermoplastics) with fibers like glass or carbon to enhance their strength and durability. When heated, these composites become soft and moldable, allowing them to be shaped easily. Once cooled, they retain their new shape and are resistant to heat, chemicals, and fatigue. Used in industries like aerospace, automotive, and sports equipment, thermoplastic composites combine lightweight characteristics with high performance, making them valuable for applications that require strong, adaptable, and recyclable materials.
