THERMOSET COMPOSITE LAMINATES
Referred to as industrial laminates. Thermoset Phenolics consist of layers of resin and material which form into plastic when exposed to high heat:
FIBERGLASS COMPOSITES
Reinforced with glass fibers, these composites offer a strength that is comparable to metal yet flexible like carbon fiber:
