    2. Compound properties: quantitative aspect

    In this section, we briefly present the contribution of reinforcements and fillers to improving the mechanical, thermal and electrical properties, etc., of so-called commodity thermoplastics, as well as the main engineering materials that lend themselves to these modifications. A more detailed study is presented in tabular form in [Comp. AM 3 239].

    2.1 Glass fibers

    The properties of some amorphous thermoplastics (tables 1 and 2 in ]), followed by the most interesting polyamides (tables 3...
