What are composites?
A composite material is composed at least two
elements working together to produce material
properties that are totally different to the properties
of those elements on their own.
A composite material has two phases:
Continuous phases-(metal , ceramics & polymer
matrix).
Dispersed phase-(glass fiber ,organic fiber).

Characteristics of composite materials:-
Composites have the following
characteristics:- Microscopically it is non-homogeneous material and
has distinct surface interface.
There are big differences in the performance of
composite materials.
The formed materials should have a great improvement
in performance.
Volume fraction of components is larger than 10%.

Why composites in Aerospace
industry?
The main aim of the aerospace/aircraft
industries is to reduce weight keeping
the same or more strength than the
regular metals have.
This criteria leads to use the composite
material.

There are also some reasons why composite
materials are selected for aerospace
applications-
1) High strength to weight
ratio (low density with high
tensile strength).
2) High creep resistance.
3) High tensile strength at
elevated temperature.
4) High toughness.

Aircraft composite contents:- Graph shows:-
Civil aircraft in black , military in purple.
Historically military used mare composite than civil.
Since 2005,civil aircraft have dramatically increased the composite content.
Airbus has relatively steadily increased its usage of composites over the years.
Boeing jumped from 12% composite by weight in the 787.

CONCLUSION
Composite material will play an increasingly significant role in aerospace application.
B787,A350-XWB used more than 50% composite materials.
With their unique combination of properties such as low weight , high strength , low flammability , smoke density and heat release , non toxicity and durability , composite are ideal for many aerospace application both for interior and exterior components.
