During impact, thermoset composites show brittle behaviour, whereas thermoplastic composites show a relatively ductile behaviour with higher absorption of impact energy. In this study, both thermoset (phenolic, vinyl ester) and thermoplastic (Polyvinyl butyral \u2013 PVB) matrices were used with Para aramid reinforcement for the development of five layered composite samples. Drop weight impact, Charpy impact, flexural (three-point), and hardness tests were conducted to assess the performance of the composite samples. The developed thermoplastic composites showed superior impact properties as compared to thermoset composites except for out-of-plane deformation (trauma).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
