Flexural properties of hybrid composites reinforced by S-2 glass and T700S carbon fibres

A study on the flexural properties of hybrid composites reinforced by S-2 glass and T700S carbon fibres is presented in this paper. Specimens were manufactured following the hand lay-up process in an intra-ply configuration with varying degrees of glass fibres added to the surface of a carbon laminate. These specimens were then tested in the three point bend configuration in accordance with ASTM D790-07 at a span to depth ratio of 32. The...
