The composite materials are commonly classified based on matrix constituent The major composite classes include Organic Matrix Composites (OMCs), Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) and Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs)

matrix, therefore it is sometimes called reinforcing phase Many of There are two classification systems of composite materials One of them is based on the matrix material (metal, ceramic, polymer) and the second is based on the material

Concrete containing such rods or wires is called reinforced concrete Making composites Most composites are made of just two materials One is the matrix or

reinforcing phase material may be in the form of fibers, particles, or flakes Fiber composites consist of matrices reinforced by short (discontinuous) or long m) The accepted range to be classified as a nanocomposite is that one of the characteristics of a lamina are, in general, based on micromechanics formulations

What are the classes and types of composites? • Why are composites Composite is considered to be any multiphase materials that exhibits a significant proportion Fiber-reinforced Structural (b) C fibers: very stiff very strong C matrix: less stiff Chapter 16 - Structural: -- Based on build-up of sandwiches in layered form
