This composite materials selector allows you to make a simple first approximation to finding the right material for your application. Select ‘High’, ‘Medium’ or ‘Low’ for the properties listed in the top level opposite. In the lower level you can weight how important each property is relative to its other properties. A list of composites will be displayed in the table above together with a % value relating to how well each composite matches the property values you have selected.
