The hybrid composites are manufactured by using a single step vacuum assisted resin transfer moulding process (VARTM). Resulting in high quality composites for load introducing areas. The results are compared with quasi-isotropic GFRP composites. The hybrid composites show a more ductile fracture behaviour in comparison to the quasi-isotropic GFRP laminate. With a metal volume fraction Vf < 20 vol.% a higher bearing strength is possible compared to GFRP. The permeable WMF increases the matrix flow through all layers in thickness direction while injection with the RTM-process. Furthermore, it yield to a weight reduction compared to solid metal plies.enGlass fibresHybrid compositeResin-Transfer-MouldingTechnikConference PaperOther
