Abstract

A composite material is made up of a chemically and/or physically unique phase spread inside a continuous phase that has qualities that are distinct from both of these materials. The high specific strength (stress/density) and modulus (stress/stiffness) of composites, as well as their low density (mass/volume), make them particularly appealing. Fibers of varied diameters are the most important component of composite materials. Since antiquity, fibres, in particular, have been employed to strengthen considerably weaker materials. The potential of such reinforcement for boosting the fabrication of composites of engineering significance has only lately been scientifically examined. The content in this chapter is devoted to a variety of fibres that are now generating a lot of attention among researchers and engineers due to their structural and functional benefits.
