COMPOSITE MATERIALS
THE ADVANTAGES OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS
Composite material has many advantages
- Lightweight, with a density between 1.35 and 2.35.
- Fire resistance, svt standards: UL94 / EN45545
- Chemical resistance
- Rot-proof
- Dielectric insulation, up to 20Kv/mm
- Good mechanical support, with a modulus of elasticity up to 24Gpa
- Heat resistance, up to 1000°C (and for some 100% non-combustibility).
- Low thermal conductivity
Composition of the composite material
The composite material is made of at least two distinct components. A fiberglass reinforcement structure and a resin matrix (binder).
- The properties of the material become superior to those of each component.
- It has intrinsic physical, dielectric, mechanical and chemical characteristics.

A WINNING ALTERNATIVE
The composite material is becoming a real alternative to other materials such as ALU 2017A or stainless steel.
In comparison with the other two, here are the main performances:
