  2. Particulate Reinforcement Example: idealized cubic array of spherical particles

  3. Experimental observations on effects of particulate reinforcement Experiments show that, for typical micron-sized particulate reinforcement, as the particle volume fraction increases, the modulus increases but strength and elongation decrease Flexural stress-strain curves for 30 µm glass bead-reinforced epoxy composites of various bead volume fractions. (From Sahu, S., and Broutman, L. J. 1972. Polymer Engineering and Science, 12(2), 91-100. With permission.)

  4. Yield strength of particulate composites Nicolais-Narkis semi-empirical equation for case with no bonding between particles and matrix (6.65) where Syc is the yield strength of the composite Sym is the yield strength of the matrix material vp is the volume fraction of particles the coefficient 1.21 and the exponent 2/3 are selected so as to insure that Syc decreases with increasing vp, that Syc = Sym when vp=0, and that Syc=0 when vp=0.74 , the particle volume fraction corresponding to the maximum packing fraction for spherical particles of the same size in a hexagonal close packed arrangement

  5. Liang – Li equation includes particle – matrix interfacial adhesion (6.66) where θ is the interfacial bonding angle, θ= 0o corresponds to good adhesion, and θ = 90o corresponds to poor adhesion
