“…The high viscosity of the polymer may retain the diffusion of the matrix though the nanofibers during the curing process, making the choice of the polymer a critical aspect with regard of the resin. The importance of the nanofibers-composite interaction is also presented in [35], where significantly different results have been found when interleaving the same nanofibers into different laminates;…”

In the last few decades nanofibers have been developed and introduced in a vast number of industrial and research applications. One of their most effective use is as interleaved reinforcement for composite laminate materials against delamination. Nanofibrous mats have the ideal morphology to be embedded between two plies of a laminate, and a vast and deep research has been carried out investigating their effect on the global behaviour of a composite laminate. This review is the first of its kind to date which presents a detailed state-ofthe-art on the effect of nanofibrous interleaves into composite laminates with focus on the mechanical performances and behaviours of nanomodified materials. A detailed description of the working mechanisms of the nanointerleave under different load cases is presented, and a comparative analysis between papers in literature will provide readers with a powerful tool to understand and use nanofibers for reinforcing purposes.

“…The comparison between standard composite materials and composites reinforced with nanofibers shows that the inclusion of nanofibers in composites can drastically improve some materials properties. Thus many authors investigated how the inclusion of nanofibers in composites can enhance some of their properties [1][2][3][4][5].…”

“…Some nano-enrichments can make composites more resistant to impacts, plastic deformation and fracture than standard composites: It has been observed that the inclusion of nanofibers in composites is one of the ways to enhance the mechanical properties in composites. Thus, many authors have extensively investigated how the inclusions of nanofibers into composites increase the resistance to impact as compared to virgin composites [5][6].…”

The vibration behaviour of GFRP composites reinforced with nylon nano-fibres is considered experimentally and numerically using a finite element model. The present analysis of clamped-clamped beams investigates the natural frequencies, the damping and the stiffness of virgin and nano-interleaved composite laminates. The numerical modelling uses ANSYS Workbench 16.2. Experimental and numerical results showed a significant effect of the nylon nanofibers on the dynamic behaviour of the composites. Nano-modified composites demonstrated a consistent increase in the damping ratio and inter-laminar strength. However, the variation in natural frequencies and stiffness due to the nanofibers was very small. This study contributes to the knowledge about the macro dynamic properties of nylon interleaved GFRP composites. It demonstrates that a simple FE model can be used to accurately predict the dynamic behaviour of such nano-composites.

“…As some of the authors have already demonstrated, interleaving small diameter fibres between one or more interfaces improves strength, toughness and delamination resistance of composites without reducing the in-plane properties or adding weight [2][3][4][5][6][7].…”
