While a composite material is defined as a mixture of two or more different materials, many research works in the literature dealt with composites of only two constituents, which are matrix and one type of particles.
To limit the burden of data collection, we used the same sample of medical records for all 4 QIs, limited sample size to 80 medical records, and built a composite score of only 10 items to assess medical record completeness.
A composite thin film of only 6 μm, consisting of a first layer of ZnO nanorods (ZNRs) and a second layer of ZnO nanoparticles (ZNPs), was deposited on a flexible Ti foil.
It is worth mentioning that CNT, as the reinforcing phase, can enhance the mechanical properties of composite only in the case of homogeneous distribution in the matrix.
Composites with only weave presented similar results to the composite with 10% (w/w) of only fiber in the three tensile properties analyzed and better results than the composites with both weave and powder, indicating that oriented fibers give better mechanical properties than randomly oriented fibers.
In the same time, the SiO2@C composite retains a capacity of only around 95 mAh g−1 when cycled at the same current density.
The ultimate tensile strength and tensile toughness of the epoxy composite at a loading of only 0.5 wt% PSS-PANI/rGO were improved by 39% and 127%, respectively, when compared to the respective values of the pristine epoxy.
Optimization of wear behavior of C/C composite is only possible by understanding the mechanisms of the microstructural changes of materials, corresponding mechanical properties and the nature of wear under various environmental conditions.
The tensile strength and elongation at break of the composites with RGO content of only 0.5 wt% were improved by 341.9% and 354.3%, respectively.
It was observed that the tensile strength and modulus values of hybrid composites gave a value between tensile strength and modulus values of only fiber reinforced composites and only particle reinforced composites.
