Abstract
The present disclosure relates to the development of high performance light weight carbon fiber fabric-electrospun carbon nanofibers hybrid polymer composites and a process thereof. In this process continuous carbon nanofiber sheets of diameter in the range of few hundred nanometers are developed from electrospun PAN nanofibers and sandwich between the carbon fiber fabric epoxy resin prepregs to develop hybrid polymer composites by compression molding technique with low content of carbon fibers.
