MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Combination of two or more different materials at the macroscopic level.

a. Polymer b. Ceramics
c. Composite materials d. Material Science

2. It can reduce the number of the parts in a complex assembly by designing the material in
combination with the structure.
a. Material cost
b. Processing cost
c. Cost of Composite
d. Design cost

3. Reinforce along the line of their length. Reinforcement may be mainly 1-D, 2-D, 3-D.
a. Fiber composites
b. Laminar composites
c. Particle composites
d. Flake composites

4. Used a strengthen a matrix do not do so in the same way as fibers. Spread at random through
out a matrix, particles tend to reinforce in all directions equally.
a. Fiber Composites
b. Particle Composites
c. Flake Composites
d. Laminar Composites

5. It consists of thin, flat flakes held together by a binder or placed on a matrix.

a. Fiber Composites
b. Particle Composites
c. Flake Composites
d. Laminar Composites

6. It involve two or more layers of the same or different materials. The layers can be arranged in
different directions to give strength where needed.
a. Fiber Composites
b. Particle Composites
c. Flake Composites
d. Laminar Composites

7. The materials are added to a normal composite result in strengthening the composite and
reducing weight.
a. Filled Composites
b. Combined Composites
c. Flake Composites
d. Laminar Composites

8. Combination of wood as natural fiber, and layers as laminar composites.

a. Speedboat hulls
b. Modern Ski
c. Spring steel
d. Ski composite

9. These materials offer high strength and high stiffness at low weight. Boron, silicon, carbide and
graphite fibers are in this category.
a. Glass Fibers
b. Fibers-Carbon
c. Advanced Fibers
d. Fiber Material

10. Fiber precursor heated and stretched to align structure and remove non-carbon material.
a. High Modulus
b. Ceramic Fiber
c. Silicon Carbide Fibers
d. Intermediate Modulus

IDENTIFICATION

1. POLYESTER have good mechanical properties, electrical properties and chemical resistance.
2. VINYL ESTERS have increased resistance to corrosive environments as well as a high degree of
moisture resistance.
3. Flexibility and improved performance is also achieved by utilization of additives and fillers.
EPOXY
4. A major one is the tendency of designers to rely on traditional materials such as steel and
aluminum unless composites can be produced at lower cost.
5. CURING is the drying and hardening (or polymerization) of the resin matrix of a finished
composite.
6. LAY-UP basically is the process of arranging fiber-reinforced layers (laminae) in a laminate and
shaping the laminate to make the part desired.
7. MOLDINGS OPERATIONS are used in making a large number of common composite products.
8. SPRAY-UP process, chopped fibers and resins are sprayed simultaneously into or onto the
mold.
9. VACUUM-BAG process was developed for making a variety of components, including relatively
large parts with complex shapes.
10. PRESSURE-BAG process is a virtually mirror image of vacuum-bag molding.
11. THERMAL EXPANSION MOLDING process, prepress layers are wrapped around rubber blocks,
and then placed in a metal mold.
12. AUTOCLAVE MOLDING is similar to both vacuum-bag and pressure-bag molding.
13. CENTRIFUGAL CASTING is used to form round objects such as pipes.
14. CONTINUOUS PULTRUSION is the composite counterpart of metal extrusion. Complex parts
can be made.
15. PULFORMING is similar to pultrusion in many ways. A typical pulformed product is a curved
reinforced plastic car spring.
