This is due to their excellent strength-to-weight ratios\, which make them prime candidates for automotive and aerospace light weight ing applications. Automotive light weighting is the practice of decreasing the weight of the vehicle to increase its fuel efficiency.
\n
\ nPreviously\, light weighting was accomplished mainly by replacing convent ional steel components with lighter metals such as aluminum. However\, wit h more stringent carbon emission standards and the demand by consumers for cars with higher fuel efficiency\, the need for materials with better att ributes than light-weight metallic alloys became apparent. This has driven the interest in using thermoplastic composites (TPCs) as a viable replace ment for load-bearing metal components.
