The main purpose of this study was to turn cotton and flax fibers into knitted preforms, then to use these preforms as reinforcement to examine their ecological and environmental advantages that they provided to the knitted preforms. Our aim was to analyze the difference of flax and cotton fabric composites in terms of tensile, compression and impact strength, also to understand the mechanical contribution of fibre and yarn inlay in these composites.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesscompositestextile reinforcedmechanical propertiesknitted preformscotton yarnflax yarnArticle64137WOS:000315760300001N/AQ3
