<strong>Aerospace</strong> <strong>Composites</strong> <strong>Market</strong> 2018: Industry Survey, Growth, Competitive<br />

Landscape and Forecasts to 2023<br />

Composite materials are used for various purposes in the aircraft industry. The advantage of composites is that they can sustain their identities and do not<br />

merge completely with each other. On mixing, the materials create a hybrid material that has better structural properties, which can be used for aerospace<br />

components. Composite materials used in aerospace industry consist of fiberglass, carbon fiber, and fiber-reinforced matrix systems or any combination of<br />

these materials. <strong>Aerospace</strong> composites are used in various aircraft frames, such as wings, aircraft interiors, and fuselage as these can sustain extreme<br />

operating conditions, including high temperature, high stress, shocks, and impact loads.<br />

Nearly 55% of the new Airbus aircraft A350XWB is manufactured using aerospace composite materials as compared to old aircraft, which used only 2–<br />

5% aerospace composites. The use of composites in the aerospace industry is mainly to reduce the overall weight and corrosion in the aircraft body. In<br />

addition to this, maintenance costs for aircraft manufactured using aerospace composites have reduced drastically in comparison to the maintenance costs<br />

for aircraft manufactured using traditional materials.<br />
