Mechanical characterization of epoxy composite with multiscale reinforcements: Carbon nanotubes and short carbon fibers

•Multiscale composite was prepared by incorporation of carbon nanotubes and fibers.•Carbon nanotubes were also grown on short carbon fibers to enhance stress transfer.•Significant improvements were achieved in mechanical properties of composites.•Synergic effect of carbon nanotubes and fibers was de...
