Mode I Interlaminar Fracture Toughness of Ionomer Inerleaved CFRP Laminates.
Interlaminar fracture toughness was investigated in CFRP laminates with ionomer interleaf of the thickness of 200μm. Ethylene based ionomer resin used in this study has high bonding strength with base composite. EPMA analysis revealed that the tough interphase layers where ionomer was mixed with epoxy resin were formed at the interfaces between ionomer

Recycled carbon fibre mats for interlayer toughening of carbon fibre/epoxy composites
Exploring routes for the effective use of recycled carbon fibres (rCFs) is critical to close the loop in the life cycle of carbon fibres. This work demonstrated a potential of using rCFs for interlayer toughening of carbon fibre/epoxy composites ...
