Abstract
A novel multifunctional Inter-Woven Wire Fabric composite with high electrical conductivity and enhanced interlaminar fracture toughness was manufactured. The impact and compression after impact performance of the composite were investigated. The results demonstrated that the conductive weft yarns within the composites can act as interlaminar toughness enhancers, significantly improving the damage resistance of CFRP composites to a drop-weight impact event, as well as the corresponding compressive residual strength properties.
