Global GF and GFRP Composites Market 2014-2018
Global GF and GFRP Composites Market 2014-20180280035Composite materials are products made up of two distinct physical states: one being a fibrous state and the other a continuous form distributed in a matrix. GFRP composite (or GF) is a fiber reinforced polymer made of plastic and reinforced with GFs in a continuous stranded fashion. The plastic may be a thermoset plastic (mostly epoxy, polyester, or vinyl ester) or a thermoplastic.
The GFs are made from various categories of glass, depending on the end-use. GFs have silica or silicate along with some amount of oxides of calcium, magnesium, and sometimes boron. Fiberglass is lightweight and strong. It is not as strong as carbon fiber but is stronger than many metals. Additionally, its raw materials are comparatively cheaper than those of carbon fiber composites. Covered in this Report0280035This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the Global GF and GFRP Composites market for the period 2014-2018. To arrive at a ranking of the leading vendors of the market, and to calculate the market size, the report considers the revenue generated through the sales of GF and GFRP composites by these vendors.
