Abstract: | ABSTRACTThis review critically examines the recent developments in the use of carbon-based nanofillers as additional reinforcement to enhance the interlaminar properties of FRP composites. The low interlaminar strength of FRP composites results in delamination failure. The various nanoreinforcement strategies and their effect on fracture toughness, interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and interlaminar fatigue are discussed in detail to prevent this delamination failure. Important findings on various factors that influence the interlaminar properties of multi-scale composites are presented by discussing various intrinsic and extrinsic toughening processes. Moreover, an overview of simulation techniques is provided to predict the delamination onset and propagation. |
