Abstract
A novel multifunctional composite based on Inter-Woven Wire Fabric (IWWF) was manufactured and investigated with the intention of improving the electrical conductivity and interlaminar fracture toughness compared with conventional laminates. The conductive weft yarns within the composite were demonstrated to act both as electrically conductive paths and interlaminar toughness enhancers simultaneously. The results demonstrated that both the electrical properties and interlaminar fracture toughness were improved significantly and the IWWF technology is suggested as a promising route for the further development of high-performance multifunctional composites.
