  • Patent number: 12698368
    Abstract: Fiber-reinforced composite (e.g., for portable electronic devices), and methods of molding such fiber-reinforced composite parts. Such a fiber-reinforced composite part comprises one or more fiber layers and a plurality of ceramic particles within a polymer matrix such that ceramic particles and polymer are disposed above and below each of the fiber layer(s), with the ceramic particles comprising from 30% to 90% by volume of the composite part, the polymer matrix comprising from 6% to 50% by volume of the composite part, and the fiber layer(s) comprising from 1% to 40% by volume of the composite part; the ceramic particles having a Dv50 of from 50 nanometers to 100 micrometers; the ceramic particles being substantially free of agglomeration; and the composite part having a relative density greater than 90%.
