Here is a list of particle reinforced composites: 1. Large Particle Composites 2. Cermet (Cer + met ≈ Ceramics + Metal) 3. Concrete 4. Reinforced Concrete. 1. Large Particle Composites: Particles should be equiaxed. For effective reinforcement, the particles should be small and evenly distributed throughout the matrix. Further, the mechanical properties are enhanced with increasing volume fraction of particles. [...]
