N2 - Fracture toughness of the laminated fiberglass composite is an important property and has significant impact in the structural applications. In this paper, additional epoxy resin film was added in conjunction with Tetraethyl orthisilicate (TEOS) electrospun nanofibers (ENFs) between the plies of the laminates.The laminated fiberglass composite were fabricated using vacuum bagging method with and without electrospun nanofibers interleaved between laminates. The short beam strength of the nanoengineered laminated composite was investigated for four stacking sequences. The study shows that interleaving of TEOS ENFs between the laminates enhanced strain energy absorbed before complete failure and fracture toughness of tested glass fiber reinforced polymeric composites increased upto 30% and the short beam strength improved by 16%.
