Abstract:

With recent advances in processing technology, there is rapidly expanding research interest in composite materials with superior properties, hitherto unobtainable in monolithic systems, for a wide range of engineering applications. It is now generally recognized that the overall performance characteristics of composite materials are strongly influenced by the structure, chemistry and physical properties of the interfaces between the various components. Tailoring the interfaces to optimize the composite microstructure for superior performance will inevitably require a thorough fundamental understanding of the structure and properties of interfaces. This volume contains the Proceedings of the Symposium on Interfacial Phenomena in Composites Processing, Characterization and mechanical Properties, held at Salve Regina College, Newport, Rhode Island, June 1-3, 1988.
