Fiber‐Filled Material Materials – Materials with Microstructure
While the desired stiffness and strength of a part can be achieved by using mechanical design stiffening principles, such as by using ribs, materials with inherently higher stiffness and strength can expand the design envelope. One successful strategy is to use high‐stiffness and high‐strength fibers to reinforce plastics. This chapter describes chopped‐fiber composites that can be processed into relatively inexpensive parts by injection molding. It highlights the various fiber types and the processing issues. The chapter considers the complexity in the tensile moduli of nonhomogeneous materials. Nonhomogeneity can be of two types – through‐thickness and in‐plane – both of which are present in molded parts. The chapter discusses the distribution of mechanical properties of in short‐fiber and long‐fiber filled injection‐molded parts. It outlines the complexity of modeling fiber orientation development in a part in several simple steps.
