• Matrix phase:
-- The continuous phase:
- transfer stress to other phases 0.5 mm
- protect phases from environment cross
-- Classification: MMC, CMC, PMC section

• Aligned Continuous fibers
• Examples:
-- Ceramic: Glass w/SiC fibers
-- Metal: g'(Ni3Al)-a(Mo) formed by glass slurry
by eutectic solidification. Eglass = 76 GPa; ESiC = 400 GPa.

◼ Particulate-reinforced:
-- Elastic modulus can be estimated and properties are isotropic
◼ Fiber-reinforced:
-- Elastic modulus and TS can be estimated along fiber direction
-- Properties can be isotropic or anisotropic (direction dependent)
◼ Laminated:
-- Built-up sandwiches in layered form
