Zusammenfassung: | Provided herein are polymer matrix composites, articles including the polymer matrix composites, and methods of forming the polymer matrix composites. The polymer matrix composite includes a stitched composite and a hybrid barrier layer incorporated within the stitched composite, the hybrid barrier layer including a thin ply and a nanographene dispersed resin. The article includes a high-pressure composite cryogenic tank including the polymer matrix composite. The method includes positioning a dry thin ply between composite plies, stitching the composite plies to form a stitched preform, dispersing nanographene into the resin, and infusing the stitched preform with the modified resin. |
