Interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) is vital for preventing delamination and allowing composites to endure high loads. Optimizing ILSS can be challenging, as it requires balancing material compatibility, resin modifications, and manufacturing processes. Seabind-coated fibers enhance surface area and roughness, significantly improving load transfer between fiber and resin for stronger, more durable parts. This improvement reduces the need for additional layers, resulting in lighter, more cost-efficient composites.
