Historical Development of Composites

straw + mud Brick B.C. 2000

Plywood
Development of composite materials and manufacturing technologies is one of the most important advances in the history of material science.

GENERAL APPLICATIONS OF COMPOSITES

City planning Housing Electronics Aviation industry Automotive industry Construction equipment Construction industry Agriculture

Composites : getting the best of all worlds

heavy Lower Tm

What is Composite?
Dispersed Phase
Resistance and Load

Composites
Matrix Phase
The continuous phase - transfer stress to other phases - protect phases from environment

Composites

- transfer stress to other phases - Prot ect phases from environment

ADVANTAGES
Stiffness Conductivity Easy Shaped Weight

Hardness

Strength

Corrosion Resistance

High Temperature Performance

Strength/light-weight, low cost, environmentally resistant

DISADVANTAGES
Fatigue is affected badly from the grains of air in the composite material. Composite materials have different properties in different directions in the material Tensile strength, discharge voltage, flexural strength may be different for the same composite material Precision manufacturing like hole drilling or cutting can not be applied to composite materials because they may cause openings in fibers TRKEDENNNN
