Graphene and related materials in hierarchical fiber composites: Production techniques and key industrial benefits - ScienceDirect
Fiber-reinforced composites (FRC) are nowadays one of the most widely used high-tech materials. In particular, sporting goods, cars and the wings and fuselages of airplanes are made of carbon fiber reinforced composites (CFRC). CFRC are mature commercial products, but are still challenging materials. Their mechanical and electrical properties are very good along the fiber axis, but can be very poor perpendicular to it; interfacial interaction have to be tailored for specific applications to avoid crack propagation– and delamination;
