Intended Learning Outcomes
At the end of this section, students will be able
to:-
• Understand what composites are and how they
are classified.
• Reason why composites are used in place of
other material types.

Composites: Composed of two (or more) individual materials
from the categories of metals, ceramics and polymers.
Composites
A composite is considered to be any multiphase material that
exhibits a significant proportion of the properties of both
constituent phases such that a better combination of
properties is realized.

Wood: A natural composite of
cellulose fibres (which are
strong in tension) embedded in
a matrix of lignin which resists
compression.
Natural composites
9. ENR116 – Mod. 4- Slide No. 9
The simplest composite materials are composed of just two
phases; the matrix, which is continuous and surrounds the
other phase, often called the dispersed phase.

10. ENR116 – Mod. 4- Slide No. 10
Composites: Multiphase material with significant presence of
each phase.
Matrix: The continuous phase. Fills volume, provides shape.
Transfers stress to other phase(s) and protect phases from the
environment.
Terminology and classification
Dispersed Phase: Enhances matrix properties. May increase
E, y, TS or creep resistance.
metal ceramic polymer
Classification:
MMC, CMC, PMC

Particle composites
Particle-reinforced Fiber-reinforced Structural
Large-particle composites: particle-matrix interactions cannot
be treated on the atomic or molecular level.
The particulate phase is harder and stiffer than the matrix.
Cheap fillers: reduces cost (as the particles are much less
expensive than the matrix).
Resist localised deformations: Particles tend to restrain
movement of the matrix phase in the vicinity of each particle.
13. ENR116 – Mod. 4- Slide No. 13
Dispersion-strengthened composites:
Particles smaller: diameters between 10 and 100 nm.
Particle composites
Particle-reinforced Fiber-reinforced Structural
The small dispersed particles hinder or impede the motion of
dislocations (plastic deformation).
Yield and tensile strengths, hardness are improved.
14. ENR116 – Mod. 4- Slide No. 14
1. Large-particle:
Particles should be evenly distributed throughout the matrix.
Particle composites
Particle-reinforced Fiber-reinforced Structural
Mechanical properties are enhanced with increasing
particulate content.
2. Dispersion strengthened:
Matrix supports load, small
particles stop crack propagation

Particle composites
Concrete - gravel + sand + cement + water
Reinforced concrete - Reinforce with steel rebar or
remesh - increases strength - even if cement matrix is
cracked.
Pre-stressed concrete - Rebar/remesh placed under
tension during setting of concrete. Release of tension after setting places
concrete in a state of compression. To fracture concrete, applied tensile stress
must exceed this compressive stress.
threaded
rod
nut
Post-tensioning – tighten nuts to place concrete under compression
Sand fills voids between gravel particles.

Summary
• Composites are classified according to both
the matrix material and reinforcement
structure.
• Composites enhance mechanical properties
such as Young’s modulus and stress.
