Influence of Hybrid Co‐wrapped Yarn Structure on the Energy Absorption and Crack Propagation Resistance of Fiber‐Reinforced Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Helical wrapping of polyamide around E‐glass fibres deflects and bridges impact‐driven cracks, arresting damage that would otherwise propagate catastrophically in conventional side‐by‐side hybrid yarns. ABSTRACT Hybrid cowrapped (CW) yarns were engineered to enhance the impact resistance and damage tolerance of fiber‐reinforced composites.
