If the interfacial shear strength is weak, this results in early failure of the composite. Conversely, if the treatment is too strong, then the composite becomes brittle. Increasing the fiber matrix adhesion does enhance the composite compressive strength.

It is interesting to compare the efficiency of the reinforcement for AS4 fibre in PPS and PEEK. In the former case the values are 92% and 63% for modulus and strength respectively and in the latter 99% and 87% respectively. Modulus uptake is excellent in both cases and strength in the second. The poorer strength result for PPS may be due to reduced compatibility between the fibre surface and matrix. This is supported by the lower ILSS value for PPS carbon fibre composite. Compressive properties are notably lower than tensile ones, while transverse tensile properties are similar to those of thermosetting polymer matrix materials.
