Dispersion of C/SH microparticles between the interlaminar interfaces of glass/epoxy, carbon/epoxy and glass/phenolic laminates was successfully achieved and its effect on the laminate’s impact behaviour was investigated. A significant improvement in the energy absorption capability, the impact loa...
