This sample is a look at a reinforcement called Supercomp from @Boston Materials . It is interesting because it has a layer of very short carbon fibers oriented in the "z-axis" - or perpendicular to the plane of the fabric. This adds a micro-core to the two plies when places back to back and also created a very tough shear-resistant connection between the plies. The small fibers spear through the carbon on the woven plies and make it very hard to peel the whole laminate apart.
The process here is vacuum infusion and it took a few tries to get it to work. Turns out thousands of small fibers really cut into the normal micro-flow channels that woven materials have in them - so infusing can be kind of a challenge! Finally got it though!
