Global Aluminum Composite Panels Market Overview
An aluminum composite panel composed of three layers, a low-density core placed in between two relatively thin skin layers. This sandwich assembly allows achieving excellent mechanical performance at minimal weight. Aluminum is usually low strength material, but sandwich composite offers higher thickness, high bending stiffness, and low density. Aluminum composite materials are increasingly being used in various industrial applications such as marine, aerospace, automobile industry, etc. The use of aluminum composite materials is the result of the rising demand for light and strong structures. Weight reduction is a dominant factor in the transport sectors such as high-speed boats, high-speed trains, passenger cars, etc. The composite materials concept benefits single skin laminated structures in terms of flexural feature with reduced weight. Flexural stiffness and strength are features to be considered in a variety of designs. Aluminum composite materials have an excellent stiffness over lightness ratio. It is what makes it very useful in industrial applications.
