Composites

A Composite material is a material that has been made from two or more materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties that have been combined to produce a superior material with properties of both materials.

The perfect example to help individuals understand the concept of composites is one of the first composite materials made by mankind by combining straw and mud materials to form bricks to be used in the construction of housing and other buildings. This technique of composite materials is alleged to be over 6000 years old.
