No. But it can be made into a composite by adding glass, carbon, or kevlar fibers, among other things.

Is composite metal?
Some composites might contain metal (e.g. steel wires like used in tires), but no composites are not metals. A few typical composites are:fiberglass & epoxy resincarbon fiber & epoxy resincarbon-carbon (a very high temperature composite made by baking carbon fiber & epoxy resin until the epoxy resin carbonizes)etc.
Is wood an example of polymer?
Wood is actually a composite material composed of several polymers (e.g. cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin), assorted minerals, fatty acids, resin acids, waxes terpenes, etc. As a composite, wood is biologically analogous to fiberglass epoxy or carbon fiber epoxy synthetic composites, with cellulose providing the fibers and hemicellulose and lignin the binders.
What modified epoxy meaning and pure epoxy meaning?
A modified epoxy resin contain substances added to improve the properties.
Can epoxy applied on the oily surface?
can epoxy resin applied on oily surface
What is two part epoxy?
The two parts are: epoxy monomer and hardener/catalyst. Upon mixing the hardener/catalyst triggers polymerization of the epoxy monomers and the adhesive sets.

What surfaces does epoxy resin work best on?
Epoxy resin is only one part of a composite glue, a hardener is also required. They are most commonly used in PVC plumbing pipes, but these composite glues can be designed so as to work on a wide range of surfaces including wood and metal.
What is in a composite baseball bat?
the main components in a composite bat are carbon fiber sheets, Aramid, epoxy, poly-carbonate plugs, steel rod, steel pin, and fiber glass.

What are 3 things that are used to make solid rocket fuel?
Model rocket engines use either black powder (charcoal, sulfur, and potassium nitrate) or a composite mixture (epoxy, ammonium perchlorate, etc.). Solid rocket fuels for large rockets can use composite mixtures containing synthetic rubber, epoxy, aluminum powder, iron powder, iron oxide, ammonium perchlorate, etc.
A Bundy composite piccolo that was broken right below the metal band so what glue can be used?
A good 5-minute epoxy, and keep pressure on it while it sets.
How do you bond carbon fiber to fiber glass?
If you are asking about bonding carbon fiber composite to fiberglass composite, a strong epoxy is recommended, sanding both surfaces thoroughly first. Clamping force is also recommended, and under certain circumstances, an autoclave to reduce air bubbles.If you are looking to wrap carbon fiber over a fiberglass composite form, sand the surface first, then apply a coat of slow-curing epoxy. Let it dry to a tack, then wrap the fabric over the sticky surface. Finish by wetting out the wrapped-over fiber with extra coats of epoxy, sanding to a gloss, and applying a clearcoat. UV inhibitors will be required if the project will be outdoors.

What is epoxy mortar?
Epoxy resins are used with aggregate (silica sand) to produce epoxy mortar or epoxy concrete, which is used for structural repairs of concrete.
Can you mix epoxy seal krete with patio paint?
No, Seal-Krete Epoxy-Seal is an acrylic-epoxy blend. By mixing 2 unlike resins (patio paint and Epoxy-Seal) the hard Epoxy-Seal acrylic-epoxy resins would become weak resulting in a coating failure.
