AnswerAsteraceae or Compositae

The name 'Asteraceae' is derived from the type genus Aster, while 'Compositae', an older but still valid name, means composite and refers to the peculiar inflorescence.

In a chemical context, this term refers to a substance that is made up of two or more constituents which have much different chemical and physical properties. The constituents tend to remain visially distinct too. This applies to fibre-glass, plywood, etc.
