In a previous work, the same authors also observed that the composite peel strength was significantly increased by introducing interleaved films of the same polymer between the layers of woven oriented tapes [30]. They continued working on PP self-reinforced composites enhanced with the addition of CNT, trying to improve properties by the use of interleaved films [28]. Samples of single-polymer polypropylene composites were produced with and without interleaved films, and with and without carbon nanofibers, located either in the oriented polypropylene tapes, in the interleaved film or in both. Maximum peel strength was observed... 

As a lower current density of the analysis beam reaches the sample surface per unit time (relative to instruments utilizing continuous primary ion beams), increased sputter rates can only be realized through the irradiation of the analyzed area of the sample by a second pulsed primary ion beam. These beams are thus referred to as the sputter beam. Note Both beams must be operated in an interleaved manner with respect to each other, i.e. only one can be sticking the sample at a time.
