Functions of the Reinforcements
Function is to reinforce the primary phase
Imbedded phase is most commonly one of the following shapes:
Fibers
Particles
Flakes
In addition, the secondary phase can take the form of an infiltrated
phase in a skeletal or porous matrix
Example: a powder metallurgy part infiltrated with polymer

Possible physical shapes of imbedded phases in composite materials:
(a) fiber, (b) particle, and (c) flake

FIBERS
Filaments of reinforcing material, usually circular in
cross-section
Diameters range from less than 0.0025 mm to about 0.13 mm,
depending on material
Filaments provide greatest opportunity for strength
enhancement of composites
The filament form of most materials is significantly stronger
than the bulk form
As diameter is reduced, the material becomes oriented in the
fiber axis direction and probability of defects in the structure
decreases significantly
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Continuous versus Discontinuous Fibers
Continuous fibers - very long; in theory, they offer a
continuous path by which a load can be carried by the
composite part
Discontinuous fibers (chopped sections of continuous
fibers) - short lengths (L/D = roughly 100)
Important type of discontinuous fiber are whiskers - hair-
like single crystals with diameters down to about 0.001 mm
(0.00004 in.) with very high strength
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Fiber Orientation
The fibers may be oriented randomly within the material, but it is
possible to arrange for them to be oriented preferentially in the
direction expected to have the highest stresses. Such a material
is said to be anisotropic (different properties in different
directions), and control of anisotropy is an important means of
optimising the material for specific applications.
At a microscopic level, the properties of these composite are
determined by the orientation and distribution of the fibers, as
well as by the properties of the fiber and matrix materials. These
topic known as composite micromechanics is concerned with
developing estimates of the overall material properties from
these parameters.

Fiber Orientation – Three Cases
One-dimensional reinforcement, in which maximum strength and stiffness are obtained
in the direction of the fiber
Planar reinforcement, in some cases in the form of a two-dimensional woven fabric
Random or three-dimensional in which the composite material tends to possess
isotropic properties
Fiber orientation in composite materials: (a) one-dimensional, continuous fibers;
(b) planar, continuous fibers in the form of a woven fabric; and (c) random, discontinuous fibers

FIBER ORIENTATION
A three dimensional weave is also possible
This could be found when fabrics are knitted or weaved together
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
FIBER ORIENTATION
The properties of fiber composites can be tailored to meet different loading requirements
By using combinations of different fiber orientation quasi-isotropic materials may be produced

Ceramics – SiC and Al2O3
Carbon – High elastic modulus
Boron – Very high elastic modulus
Glass – Most widely used filament
The most important commercial use of fibers is in polymer composites
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Particles and Flakes
A second common shape of imbedded phase is
particulate, ranging in size from microscopic to
macroscopic
Flakes are basically two-dimensional particles - small flat
platelets
The distribution of particles in the composite matrix is
random, and therefore strength and other properties of the
composite material are usually isotropic
Strengthening mechanism depends on particle size
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
INTERFACE: Zone across which matrix and reinforcing phases interact (chemical, physical,
mechanical)
To transfer the stress from matrix to reinforcement
Sometimes surface treatment is carried out to achieve the required bonding to the matrix
There is always an interface between constituent phases in a composite material. For the composite to operate effectively, the phases must bond where they join at the interface.
Interface
Interfaces between phases in a composite material: Direct bonding between
primary and secondary phases
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
In some cases, a third ingredient must be added to
achieve bonding of primary and secondary phases.
Called an interphase, this third ingredient can be thought
of as an adhesive.
Interphase
Interfaces between phases in a composite material: Direct bonding between
primary and secondary phases

Interphase
Interphase consisting of a solution of primary and
secondary phases

of an interphase by solution of the primary and secondary phases at their
boundary

Fibers - Glass
– Tensile strength
– Chemical resistance
– Moisture resistance
– Thermal properties
– Electrical properties
There are four main types of glass used in fiberglass:
– A–glass
– C–glass
– E–glass
– S–glass
Fiberglass properties vary somewhat according to the type of glass used.
However, glass in general has several well–known properties that contribute to
its great usefulness as a reinforcing agent:
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
GLASS FIBERS
Due to the relatively inexpensive cost glass fibers are the most commonly used reinforcement
There are a variety of types of glass, they are all compounds of silica with a variety of metallic oxides
Designation Property or Characteristic
E, electrical low electrical conductivity
S, strength high strength
C, chemical high chemical durability
M, modulus high stiffness
A, alkali high alkali or soda lime glass
D, dielectric low dielectric constant
- The most commonly used glass is E-glass, this is the most popular
because of it’s cost
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Fibers - Glass
Most widely used fiber
Uses: piping, tanks, boats, sporting goods
Advantages
Low cost
Corrosion resistance
Low cost relative to other composites:
Disadvantages
Relatively low strength
High elongation
Moderate strength and weight
Types:
E-Glass - electrical, cheaper
S-Glass - high strength
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Fibers - Glass
Glass fibers produced by spinning liquid glass directly to
fine fibers. Just as in the Griffith experiments, the strength
is based on small diameter.
Modulus ranges from 70- 90 GPa.
Strength ranges from 1.7-5 GPa
Breaking strain from 2 to 5%
Density ~ 2.5 gm/cm3.
“E glass” (electrical, borosilicate glass) is the cheapest
and most common. “R glass” and “S glass” is more
expensive but more corrosion resistant, for example and
higher strength.
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Fibers – Carbon
Carbon fibers have gained a lot of popularity in the last
two decades due to the price reduction
“Carbon fiber composites are five times stronger than
1020 steel yet five times lighter. In comparison to 6061
aluminum, carbon fiber composites are seven times
stronger and two times stiffer yet still 1.5 times lighter”
Initially used exclusively by the aerospace industry they
are becoming more and more common in fields such as
automotive, civil infrastructure, and paper production
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Fibers – Carbon
2nd most widely used fiber
Examples
aerospace, sporting goods
Advantages

low density
intermediate cost
Properties:
Standard modulus: 207-240 GPa
Intermediate modulus: 240-340 GPa
High modulus: 340-960 GPa
Diameter: 5-8 microns, smaller than human hair
Fibers grouped into tows or yarns of 2-12k fibers
Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ Composite Materials Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayşe KALEMTAŞ
Fibers – Carbon
Modulus ranges from 200-750 GPa (cf. Steel-210)
Strength ranges from 2-6 GPa

Highest cost compared to glass or aramid, but greatest
range of properties.
Internal structure consists of radially-aligned graphite
platelets, which leads to some anisotropy in properties in
the fibers. Both thermal and electrical conductivity are
generally good (but then insulation required where metals
might be in contact for carbon-fiber composite).
