fibers and having a resin compatible coating composition on at least a
surface of the at least one fiber strand, wherein the at least one fiber
strand has an Air Jet Transport Drag Force value of greater than 100,000
gram force per gram mass of strand as determined by a needle air jet
nozzle unit having an internal air jet chamber having a diameter of 2
millimeters and a nozzle exit tube having a length of 20 centimeters at a
strand feed rate of 274 meters per minute and an air pressure of 310
kiloPascals. A reinforced laminate comprising: (a) at least one matrix
material; and (b) at least one fabric comprising at least one fiber strand
comprising a plurality of fibers and having a resin compatible coating
composition on at least a surface of the at least one fiber strand,
wherein the at least one fiber strand has an Air Jet Transport Drag Force
value of greater than 100,000 gram force per gram mass of strand as
determined by a needle air jet nozzle unit having an internal air jet
chamber having a diameter of 0.2 millimeters and a nozzle exit tube having
a length of 20 centimeters at a strand feed rate of 274 meters per minute
and an air pressure of 310 kiloPascals.
