Abstract
Previous work has shown that electrospun nanofibers can significantly improve the interlaminar fracture toughness of fiber reinforced composites. In this work the effect of the morphology of the toughening polymer is analysed by incorporating five different polycaprolactone (PCL) structures (nanofibers, microfibers, microspheres, dense films and PCL spray coated glass fibres) in the interlaminar regions (van der Heijden, 2016).
