Composites are made from two constituent materials. The two materials have different chemical and physical characteristics from one another, and the composites they form have different characteristics from both of them.
Major materials studied in material science include: Composites and nano-composites Carbon fibers Polymers and plastics Alloys and allotropes Supercritical fluids Glass and others Ceramics
In polystyrene, the composites commonly used are typically mineral fillers like talc and calcium carbonate. These composites help improve the mechanical properties and performance of the polystyrene, making it stronger and more heat-resistant.
Sometimes composites are better than the traditional material because they enhance the properties of the traditional materials. e.g. Plastic has useful strength and ridgity, it is lightweight and is good at electrical insulation but by adding other materials you can create fibre-reinforced polymers
Composites can exhibit different types of bonding depending on the materials involved. Common bonding types in composites include mechanical interlocking, chemical bonding, and Van der Waals forces. These different bonding mechanisms work together to strengthen the composite material.
The five main types of materials are metals, polymers, ceramics, composites, and semiconductors. Metals are typically good conductors of heat and electricity, while polymers are lightweight and can be molded into various shapes. Ceramics are known for their hardness and high melting points, and composites are materials made from a combination of different substances. Semiconductors have properties between conductors and insulators and are crucial for electronics.
metal, composites, rubber, plastic and love.
Composites means which is made of composition of two constituents where as synthetics is the combination of two or more parts, composites having constituents of different physical and chemical properties, where as in case of synthetics it can have same chemical or physical properties,in case of composites the ratio of material is maintained but it can not be in case of synthetics...e.g of synthetics is plastic, or composites is concrete
