Key Properties
- Improved Load Bearing Capability
- Good Mechanical Properties
- Ideal Balance of Strength And Toughness
Limitations
- High Moisture Absorption

This can result in dimensional changes up to 2% and a corresponding reduction of physical properties. Proper design techniques can frequently compensate for this factor.
