Market Overview
Automotive composites are materials composed of fibers (reinforcement) embedded in a resin (matrix). They offer several advantages over traditional materials like steel and aluminum, including:
- Lighter weight: Composites can significantly reduce vehicle weight, leading to improved fuel efficiency and driving range.
- High strength-to-weight ratio: Composites offer excellent strength and stiffness while remaining lightweight.
- Design flexibility: Composites can be molded into complex shapes, enabling carmakers to create more aerodynamic and visually appealing vehicles.
