The development of automative applications of advanced composite materials is reviewed. Problems and issues which will have to be overcome in order for fibrous composites to be used on a production basis by the automobile industry are discussed. If these problems can be successfully met, the demand by the automobile industry for high performance fibers, such as graphite, will represent a hundred-fold expansion of the 1977 U.S. graphite fiber market.
