What are Composites?

• A composite is a material having two or more distinct constituents or phases

• These constituents have to be in reasonable proportions (typically greater than 5%)

• The constituent phases have different properties, and therefore the composite properties are noticeably different from those of the constituents

• The constituents are usually combined and intimately mixed by man-made means

Types of Composites

• There are three basic types of composites

• Fibre Reinforced Composite

• Particulate Reinforce Composites

• Laminar Composites

Fibre Reinforced Composites A matrix with reinforcing that is significantly longer in one direction

Particulate Reinforced Composites A matrix with reinforcing that is of approximately equal proportions in all directions

Laminar Composites Layers of materials with differing properties
