Improvement of the Impact Properties of Composite Laminates by Means of Nano-Modification of the Matrix—A Review

Improvement of the Impact Properties of Composite Laminates by Means of Nano-Modification of the Matrix—A Review

This paper reviews recent works on the application of nanofibers and nanoparticle reinforcements to enhance the interlaminar fracture toughness, to reduce the impact induced damage and to improve the compression after impact performance of fiber reinforced composites with brittle thermosetting resin...
