Material	Hybrid composites
	Hybrid composites are those composites which have a combination of two or more reinforcement fibres. The most common hybrid composites are carbon-aramid reinforced epoxy (which combines strength and impact resistance) and glass-carbon reinforced epoxy (wich gives a strong material at a reasonable price). Hybrid composites are usually used when a combination of properties of different types of fibres wants to be achieved, or when longitudinal as well as lateral mechanical performances are required.
