Abstract:Hybrid fiber‐reinforced composites uniquely address the performance limitations of carbon fiber‐reinforced polymers (CFRPs). In this study, continuously wrapping large tow CF (48 K) with low‐cost nylon was proposed to create nylon‐CF core‐spun yarns (NCCYs). Unidirectional nylon‐CF/epoxy composites (NCFECs) were successfully fabricated using NCCYs as hybrid fiber reinforcement. The nylon wrapping on the CF significantly enhanced the energy absorption and dispersion of the CFRPs, thereby improving the impact st… Show more
