Abstract
As a result of basalt hybridization, the ballistic limits of all sandwich configurations are enhanced if compared to those of carbon laminates. Therefore the observed decrease of static mechanical properties of hybrid composites is largely compensated by improved response to impact. Advantages also come in terms of cost saving, since the basalt fibre is far less expensive than the carbon one.
