The mechanical properties of fabrics derived from glass tows are excellent. They can be used for reinforcement of composites. In this work, glass fiber based stabilized hybrid composite tapes (SHCT) containing special types of resins which could be used for preparation of composites using precise winding technique was prepared. The resins were loaded by suitable types of nanoparticles that would enhance mechanical properties. Detailed investigation of tensile forces like breaking force, deformation at break and initial modulus was conducted. The results showed a significant difference between the samples. This research achieved loading of resins without its penetration into the winded structure through tight and complicated arrangement of fibrous phase. The tapes were found to be durable that enables their long-term storage and their sustained fit-to-use after extended storage times.
