 Abstract
Carbon fiber reinforced composites play an important role in
automotive and aerospace industries due their high specific
strength and stiffness. Hybrid composite material which may be a
combination of a metal and polymer fibers or even a ceramic and
a polymer composites. Steel CFRP hybrid composites have better
strength than pure CFRP or conventional CFRP. The presence of
steel improves the overall strength of the composites. Surface
treatment is required in-order to improve the adhesive strength
between steel and CFRP.
