For the Aerospace Engineering there are huge progress of material science and engineering with the technological challenges in terms of the development of sophisticated and specialized materials.
A composite material is made when two or more different materials are combined together to create a superior and unique materials. The stronger material referred as reinforcement and the weaker material is referred as matrix. The reinforcement provides the strength and rigidity which helps to support the structural loads. The matrix or the binder help to maintain the position and orientation of reinforcement and more brittle, but when these two materials are combined which is light weight ,stiff, strong and tough.
