Abstract:The inferior delamination resistance and out‐of‐plane performance of fiber metal laminates (FMLs) are of serious concerns. This work employs two modification methods, namely metal surface's chemical pre‐treatment and nano Al2O3 embedded interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) formation for improving the delamination resistance of aluminum and glass fiber‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite‐based FMLs. The synergetic effect of the two modification techniques resulted in high degrees of improvement in delaminatio… Show more
