| Sommario/riassunto: | "With the exception of advanced composites, mainly used in aerospace and defense applications, until recently plastics were not considered engineering materials. Now plastics have become important for several reasons. First, their cost-effective use has been demonstrated in demanding automotive structural applications. An important example is the all-plastic bumper used in the 1984 Ford Escort, which was capable of withstanding an 8 kmph (5 mph) barrier impact"-- |
