The reinforcement of concrete with corrosion resistant high-efficiency filament yarns allows for the production of particularly thin and strong components. The utilization of the technical textiles made of glass is, however, still far below the material strength potential. Different strategies for the impregnation of the textiles with liquid epoxy systems as well as the surface modification of the impregnated textiles have been investigated.
