Carbon/epoxy (CFRP) – used as a primary structural and skin material.
Kevlar/epoxy – mostly used in military applications, in primary structures and amour
plating.
Glass fibre - used as a structural and skin material (on amateur-built and aircraft).
Glass/phenolic (GFRP) – used in interior fittings, furnishings and structures.
Boron/epoxy – used in composite repair patches, older composite structures.
Poly-Fiber can be rejuvenated after years of weathering. Poly-Fiber is the only all-VINYL
system which bonds extremely well to polyester fabrics and remains flexible when it dries
and does not support combustion

The material had a layered structure and was based on graphite particles and other semi conductive materials embedded in a rubber matrix.
It used a carbon-impregnated plywood that would have made it very stealthy to Britain's primitive radar of the time. It is unknown if the carbon was incorporated for stealth reasons or because of Germany's metal shortage.
A related type of RAM consists of Neoprene polymer sheets with ferrite grains or carbon black particles (containing about 30% of crystalline graphite) embedded in the polymer matrix. The tiles were used on early versions of the F-117A Nighthawk,

Rather than smooth aerodynamic lines, Have Blue adopted an angular,
faceted shape to deflect electromagnetic waves and lower its radar
signature.
Aided by a fly-by-wire control system to rectify its aerodynamic instability,
the F-117A Nighthawk, known as the Stealth Fighter.

Better deflection is achieved with curved surfaces .
Plastic and Fiber-glass are less reflective or indeed transparent to Radar
Neoprene.

The Future of Textile Composites in Aerospace is very high With ever
increasing fuel costs and environmental lobbying, commercial flying is
under sustained pressure to improve performance, and weight reduction is
a key factor in the equation. The aircraft construction business ensures that
any opportunity to reduce operating costs is explored and exploited
wherever possible.
Competition exists in the military too, with continuous pressure to increase
payload and range, flight performance characteristics and 'survivability', not
only of airplanes, but of missiles, too.
