Can someone help me pl A major camping retailer is marketing a cup that’s made of a composite material. A composite is a combination of materials. In this example, the cup is made of wood and plastic. The retailer says that this material is more durable than plastic and that it won’t break or dent. The material is light, it looks and feels nice, it doesn’t affect taste, and it’s easy to clean. In terms of properties, what’s the value of making composite materials?
