Question

What is the main difference between nano-composite and conventional composites? a. Higher hardness b. Different magnitudes of fracture toughness c. Rule of mixture cannot be valid d. No fundamental difference

Answer 1

Answer: No fundamental difference

Explanation: There is no fundamental difference between nano-composite and conventional composites. Conventional composite have a particular structure similar like the nano- composite material which have a composition of the nano-crystals.They both have a hardness to some extent and also face damage under extensive load impact. Thus , they have certain difference but that can't be considered as the primary or fundamental.
