Abstract
Hybridization of carbon fiber composites can increase the material damping of composite parts. However, there is little research on a direct comparison of different fiber materials—particularly for carbon fiber intraply-hybrid composites. Hence, the mechanical- and damping properties of different carbon fiber intraply hybrids are analyzed in this paper. Quasi unidirectional fabrics made of carbon, aramid, Vectran and cellulose fibers are produced, and their mechanical properties are analyzed. The material tests show an increased material damping due to the use of Vectran and aramid fibers, with a simultaneous reduction in strength and stiffness.

The investigations commenced with the production of quasi unidiThree different unidirectional hybrids and a non-hybrid reference made from carbon rectional fabrics, which were further processed into composites using the vacuum infusion fibers were investigated
Hybridization of carbon fibers with Vectran fibers increases the material damping by up to 60% compared to samples made of pure carbon fibers
