AB - A theoretical expression has been derived to describe the strain behavior of rigid plastic composites containing spherical filler particles. By combining the predicted ultimate strength values with the appropriate modulus relationship, the complete stress–strain history and corresponding fracture energy may be estimated. The theoretical predictions were compared with experimental values obtained for a general‐purpose polyester resin containing spherical glass beads. The influence of silane coupling agents and filler adhesion was also evaluated. Although the experimental values showed considerable scatter, the general trend agreed fairly well with the theoretical predictions.
