Abstract

An air-assisted fibre tow spreader was used to produce continuous commingled glass and carbon fibre tows. Hybrid carbon and glass fibre (CF/GF) reinforced epoxy composites were manufactured from these commingled fibre tows by resin film infusion. The degree of hybridisation of the hybrid CF/GF tow was defined and characterised. Compared with the corresponding continuous CF/epoxy composite, the hybrid composite with a degree of hybridisation of 32.45% exhibits a more gradual tensile failure. The final tensile failure strain increased by 14% as compared to that of the carbon fibre epoxy composite.
