Mechanical Performance of Polyamide-Based Composites

In Table 5, the highest mechanical properties reported for a bidirectionally reinforced composite are by Hine et al. who reported a woven fibre-reinforced

Longitudinal and transverse properties are applicable to unidirectionally reinforced composites. Suffix (F) to modulus and strength values indicates that tests were reported to have been performed in flexure rather than t sicm
