Cover Story: This study investigates CF/PA6 thermoplastic composites and their mechanical performance with and without the use of micro-sized core–shell particles (CSPs) dispersed at the ply interfaces using a sieve. The mechanical test results showed that dispersing 4 wt% CSPs significantly improved the flexural strength (58.99%), interply shear strength (41.56%), and compressive strength (47.83%). The flexural stress–strain curves indicated delayed crack propagation, thereby enhancing mechanical performance. Post-failure micrographs revealed improved interaction between PA6 and CSPs at the ply interfaces. These findings highlight the potential of CSPs to strengthen ply interfaces in thermoplastic composites and enhance their interfacial characteristics. View this paper
