Composite bats can be dangerous because the bat is manufactured to exceed performance criteria set by a rule-making body. Balls hit with composite bats are hit 15 percent faster than balls hit with a wooden bat. This means fielders are having less time to react, putting them at risk for injury. A composite bat can also be dangerous if it is structurally damaged. Structurally damaged bats could crack or break apart, injuring anyone present. Regulations Various leagues have different rules for the use of composite bats. Baseball participants can range in age from preschool children to adults. Many youth league organizations have banned the use of composite bats during practices and games. Testing and Inspection As of January 1, 2011, the NCAA employed a test to regulate the use of composite bats. The test determines the impact a composite bat has when it comes in contact with a ball. This new method will make previously acceptable bats illegal. However, older model composite bats are likely to be acceptable as long as their are no signs of damage. There are also tests conducted by the American Society for Testing and Materials. The organization has a test that gauges the ratio of the speed of a ball hit to the speed the ball is pitched at. Additionally, batters, parents, catchers, coaches and umpires should be aware of the dangers of composite bats. They should conduct repeated checks on the quality of the bat. Signs of cracking and damage should be brought to the attention of the umpire. The umpire has the right to ban a bat from the playing field.

The results indicated that the bat contained multi-walled CNT heterogeneously distributed throughout the epoxy binder of the carbon fibers. Moreover, confocal Raman microscopy was found to be an effective, efficient, and often non-destructive technique for routine determination of CNT distribution in composite materials. CRM also has the ability to distinguish CNT from other carbonaceous materials such as C60, polymers, or epoxies present in consumer products.

Easton reports

Ms. Beurger did this over break lettin u no lol

The game of baseball is highly regarded as American's favorite pastime. However, baseball has spread and gained quite large amounts of popularity in countries all around the world. The game of baseball is played on a large field, with nine players on each team. The game is played with a baseball and a bat. One of the most popular types of bats, for good reason, is the bats manufactured by Easton. Easton has been consistently setting the bar for baseball and softball products, producing some of the industries' best: playing gloves, batting gloves, helmets, catching gear and baseball bats. The first aluminum Easton baseball bat was produce in 1969. This was a ground breaking invention because baseball bats made from aluminum are much lighter and more effective than traditional wooden bats. These aluminum baseball bats are used all over the country by little leaguers, as well as high school and college players. However, aluminum baseball bats are not allowed to be used by professional players in Major League Baseball, because of the unfair statistical advantages they would give modern day players over pre-modern day players. The aluminum bats made by Easton, and all other aluminum bats, are also much more dangerous than traditional wooden bats; because baseballs fly off them at significantly higher speeds. This would decrease the time players would have to react to a base ball flying at them at speeds higher than one-hundred miles per hour. The danger for major league players would be the greatest due to their above average levels of strength and overall skill.

Composite bats are commonly used in baseball, fast-pitch softball and adult slow-pitch softball. Players in the field have been seriously injured by balls hit by composite bats at many skill levels of baseball and softball. Some players wear masks to protect the forehead and face. Some of the blame for injuries has been attributed to the use of composite bats because of their higher designed batted-ball speed, which shortens the reaction time a fielder has to react
