Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide a particularly planar component that is as simple as possible to produce and has an optimized stability. In order to achieve said aim, a component is proposed which comprises or is formed from a polymer matrix material and at least one non-compressible filler, wherein an average proportion of the at least one non-compressible filler is preferably approximately 75 wt. % or more, based on the total mass of the component and/or based on a local mass of the component in a locally compacted region of the component, wherein the component has one or more attachment regions for attaching the component to an additional component, and wherein a material of the component is compressed at least in the one or more attachment regions.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide a component, preferably a component for a vehicle, which is as stable as possible and which has an optimized electromagnetic compatibility. This is achieved by providing a component comprising a base element, which comprises or is made of at least one composite element, and a shielding element for electrically and/or electromagnetically shielding the component, wherein the shielding element comprises or is made of one or more foils, for example one or more metal foils, and is connected to the base element.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide a flat material that is as stable as possible and can be produced as easily as possible. According to the invention, this is achieved in that the flat material comprises a thermoplastic polymer matrix material in which a fiber material is received, wherein the fiber material comprises fibers or is made of fibers that are arranged at least approximately parallel to one another, and the proportion of the fiber material to the flat material equals approximately 75 wt. % or more, based on the total mass of the flat material.
