Done by: Legends group
School Name : Tariq Bin Ziyad Independent Secondary School for Boys.
Composites Module : Students discover what composite materials are and test them to learn their advantages over pure materials. Finally, at the end of the workshop, they design new composite materials.
The product Idea: New dye made of several materials making it a composite that resists the heat and don't peel off easily. It is suitable for hot and humid climate.

3. INTRODUCTION
Composites
Composites material are material that made from
two kind of material , so it can have properties and
benefits that are different from the original form.
Example of composites :
( Airplanes wing are made from aluminum and
plastic polymer )
5. We made 3 samples { sample a
, sample b , sample c }
Sample A contains only water .
Sample B contains a mixture of water
and tissues .
Sample C contains water , cottons , tree
leaves , news paper and straws .
Procedure
7. CONCLUSION
We can see that sample c is the strongest
Sample between them .
And sample b was strong but not stronger
than sample c .
They are strong because they contained
materials that made the ice strong besides
sample a that contained only water .
11. CONCLUSION
We conclude that most of the martials
are made of composite materials
that make new properties which
could help to establish new
composite that could benefit us as
a human being .
13. PROCEDURE
We had 5 materials plastic rod , nylon
rope , wood rod , spaghetti and
steel rod .
And we tried to test the difference
between their strength and their
flexibility .
14. Flexibility Strength
1) Nylon rope 1) Steel rod
2) Plastic rod 2) Nylon rope
3) Wood rod 3) Wood rod
4) Steel rod 4) Plastic rod
5) spaghetti 5) spaghetti
15. CONCLUSION
we can see that the most flexible material
is the nylon rope and the strongest
material is steel
17. PROCEDURE
We made three samples [ A , B , C ]
Sample A didn’t have anything to support it .
Sample B was supported by a reinforcement on one side .
Sample C was supported by reinforcement on both sides .

19. We can see that sample c was the one
which showed less deflection .
Because it was supported from both
sides .
25. WHY WE CHOSE THIS PRODUCT ?
We focused on this product because it can help
our society alot because the weather in the
summer is hot and at the night it become humid
and in winter the weather becomes rainy .
So the paint on the walls peels and fall down , so
we came with this idea .
27. TESTING OUR PAINT WITH THE HEAT

28. BENEFITS OF THE PRODUCT
1- Higher quality paint
2-Building will not need re-dyeing as often
3-Resistance to hot and humid climate
4-Economic benefit
5-Multipurpose applications in buildings,
towers and in industrials applications
6-Has lower impacts on human health and
environment
29. CONCLUSION
We believe that our product could be
revolutionary in the paints industry since
higher quality paints will be introduced
to the market. Nevertheless, its
environmental and economic impacts
are distinguishable.
