Composite materials are being used across many industries like Automotive, Aerospace, Wind Energy, Sports, Consumer products and so on. They fall under the hybrid category of materials and are composed of two or more constituent materials. In this video, we will understand the benefits offered by composite materials like the ability to orient stiffness and strength properties, weight reduction, and the potential elimination of corrosion, just to name a few. We will then investigate the cost factor associated with composite materials. This will help to understand why composite structures are often costly as compared to other materials. Finally, we'll explore some of the challenges involved in working with composite materials, such as delamination, curing, and recycling, which can make their use more complex and costly.
