Study Notes

Composite Materials

  • The principle that states a better combination of properties can be achieved by combining two or more distinct materials is the concept of composite materials.
  • An example of a composite material is carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP).

Phases of Composites

  • The two main phases in usual composites are the matrix phase and the reinforcement phase.

Categories of Composites

  • The cheapest and most widely used category of composites are polymer matrix composites.

Properties of Composites

  • The properties of composites depend on the properties of the individual constituents, their relative proportions, and the interaction between them.
