1 INTRODUCTION In recent years, researchers have sought to reduce the weight of complex structural products without compromising strength. This correlation creates new research areas for the maintenance of structural integrity and material type that are utilized by industries such as aerospace, automotive, etc.

1. Introduction The legal, environmental, and competition-driven imperatives for reducing CO2 emissions, the shift towards electric vehicles, and rapid advancements in material technology have made “lightweighting” technology one of the focal points of the automotive sector. PMCs, developed and utilized in defense and aviation industries, offer a high strength-to-weight ratio, rendering them a technically significant option for the lightweighting studies of automotive applications.

1 INTRODUCTION Engineering thermoplastics demonstrate a blend of superior thermal, mechanical, electrical, and chemical characteristics in contrast to basic material resins. These versatile plastics can be fashioned into components capable of bearing heavy loads and high stresses, performing effectively at elevated temperatures, and adjusted to closely resemble the properties of metals, glass, and wood. It is widely recognized that engineering thermoplastics often possess an amorphous structure.
