Abstract

In today’s world, there are different materials that are already used in certain applications and have been performing well. As the need and the complications in certain areas have been progressively discovered, there is a wide requirement for materials’ research that has a combined effect of more than one property which is a limitation of monolithic materials. To have such an effect, the fabrication of certain materials having a well-tailored blend of properties as per the reinforcement is used to form a composite. A review has been carried out for the various research works and the effort is being made to summarize the effect of mono and hybrid reinforcements on the materialistic properties as compared to the base material.
