The structure of a randomly-formed flake-type wood composite mat is further defined and characterized. A model for the prediction of horizontal mass density distribution in a random flake mat is presented through application of two-dimensional random field theory. This model predicts the small-scale

โฆ Synopsis
A rationale is presented for developing a mathematical model which describes a randomly packed, short-fibre-type wood composite. The model will utilize probability theory to insure random packing both in terms of flake position and orientation. Knowledge about the spatial relationship between wood elements will be used, in future, to predict a number of physical parameters associated with the composite structure. This will be accomplished by first developing a single-layer-flake model and subsequently proceeding to a multi-layer mat structure.

## Abstract Titanium carbide (TiC)/polyethylene (PE) composites have been prepared with various volume fractions of TiC by a melt bleeding method. Two types of TiC powder with their different particle diameters, 1.48 ยตm (TiCโA) and ca. 100 ยตm (TiCโB), were utilized in the present study. The electri
