1 1. Fiber to fiber redundant load path.

2 2. Improved friction and wear properties.

3 3. High ‘strength or stiffness to weight’ ratio.

4 4. Due to greater reliability, there are fewer inspections and structural repairs.

5 5. Close tolerances can be achieved without machining.

6 6. High resistance to fatigue and corrosion degradation.

7 7. High resistance to impact damage.

8 8. Resistant to dent.

9 9. High torsional stiffness resulting in high whirling speeds, reduced number of intermediate bearings and supporting structural elements.

10 10. Composites are dimensionally stable due to low coefficient of thermal expansion and low thermal conductivity.

11 11. Due to their excellent heat sink and lightweight properties, Carbon-Carbon composites are utilized for aircraft brakes.

12 12. Thermoplastics can be easily reformed and so are highly attractive for high volume commercial applications.

13 13. Manufacturing and assembly of part integration in composites simple as there are no joints or fasteners which also reduce overall cost.

14 14. The composites are corrosion resistant and more durable and so excessively utilized in a marine environment.
