Consisting of a matrix phase of epoxy resin and reinforcement phase of high performance synthetic fiber, advanced composites have a number of engineering merits, such as high specific strength and specific modulus, light weight, fatigue resistance, corrosion resistance and dimensional stability, etc. Advanced composites have been applied in aerospace/aircraft industry, military industry, high pressure vessels, automobile industry and sports apparatus. Nowadays, advanced composites are produced by electron beam curing, an environment-friendly technology with greater safety and energy efficiency than conventional curing techniques. This paper gives a review on progresses of electron beam cured advanced composites.
