Abstract
Some of the material demands in the advanced industries cannot be fulfilled by monolithic materials.
Therefore, composite materials have been developed. The combination of desired properties of thermoplastics and glass particles (high strength and high modulus) is the aim of composites production Particles are
becoming increasingly popular reinforcing elements in products made by injection molding. Particles reinforcement allows the polymer to be processed employing the same methods as those used for unreinforced
polymers. The loads are not directly applied to the reinforcements, but they are applied to the matrix and
some of the loads applied are transferred to the particles. The development of micromechanics equations
for the particulate composites follows along the same lines as those for the short fiber reinforced composites. Particles are used to increase the strength or other properties of inexpensive materials during reinforcement with other matrix materials. The objective of this study is to analyse the particle breaking effect
in composite made of nylon 66 (PA) matrix reinforced with glass particles, in which the particles diameters
of 19.61, 26.15, 39.22 and 78.45 m were used. A volume fraction of 20 % was assumed in each model.
