Industrial Applications of Polymer Composite Materials

Abstract

Polymeric composites are being used widely for industrial applications. This is because of a number of advantages offered by the composite materials. Some of the advantages offered are low weight, enhanced mechanical properties, excellent durability, etc. Therefore, this chapter provides an overview of different industrial applications of polymeric composites. The different industrial sectors considered are automotive, military, aerospace, sports and leisure, and industrial construction. The authors are of the opinion that the importance of polymeric composites could be realized with the applications presented in this review.
