Who’s Who – Composite Materials
Identify Composite Materials
Can you identify composite materials used in advanced engineering applications ?
These 200 × 200 mm samples illustrate material platforms selected for severe environments, electrical insulation, lightweight structures and high-performance composite applications.
Each sample on our stand is identified by a letter only : PL1 – PL3 – PL4 – PL5 and PL6.
Your challenge is simple : identify composite materials based on their appearance, structure and engineering intuition.
Engineering Materials Challenge
These samples represent different composite and polymer material families used for industrial and aerospace applications.
Each material offers specific advantages depending on the engineering constraints:
-
thermal resistance
-
dielectric performance
-
structural behaviour
-
manufacturability
-
cost-performance balance
Select the material that you believe corresponds to each sample.
