Abstract
The mechanical properties of high-performance polyethylene (HP-PE) and carbon fibres are to some extent complimentary with respect to toughness, compressive strength and long term properties.
Combining both fibres as reinforcing elements In so-called hybride composite structures can result In a unique class of structural materials in terms of strength, stiffness and impact performance. Preliminary results concerning the use of HP-PE and carbon fibres in hybride composite structures, in an epoxy matrix, will be presented emphasizing compressive and impact properties.
