Carbon fiber composite materials, also known as carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP), are composite materials made of carbon fibers and resin (mainly epoxy resin).As light, strong, and hard materials, they are used in wide range of applications such as sporting goods, industrial, aircraft and automobile components. By selecting suitable resin, it is possible to add features like heat resistance, impact resistance, and flame retardant, and thus provide superior characteristics not found in conventional metals and ceramics to enable a reduction in the weight of parts, give freer design.

“We are thrilled that McGill is dropping its challenge to our certification as well as ongoing challenges to our sister unions representing colleagues in Education and Arts,” said Evan Fox-Decent, president of AMPL. “Within days some 500 faculty at McGill will belong to certified unions.”
