Glass Fibre Composite Cross Section

Electron micrograph of a delaminating glass fibre/filled epoxy pre-preg within a multilayer printed circuit board for applications in the aerospace industry. Delamination is caused by weak bonding between the fibres and the matrix polymer. In this case, insufficient adhesion promoter was used in the pretreatment of the glass fibres before curing.
