A composite material is a composition of high-performance fiber with a matrix material, for instance, carbon or glass in the epoxy polymer. This composition enhances the physical and chemical properties of the material. Composite automotive materials such as carbon-fiber composites are considered as fuel-efficient, lighter and safer for vehicles as they weigh one-fifth of steel but perform better in terms of strength and stiffness. These advantages of composite material over other materials and metals used in the automotive industry are one of the key factors bolstering the market growth in recent years. In addition, automotive composite materials have better corrosion resistance, a low thermal coefficient expansion for heat conduction and relatively less weight as compared to traditional materials. These physical properties of composite materials are anticipated to fuel its adoption in the automotive industry.
