The effect of the intensity of an electric field and the percentage of multilayer carbon nanotubes (MCNT) on the strength of a composite consisting of unidirectional glass fibers was studied. The test results for annular samples made by the winding method with different MCNT content in the composite and at different values of the electric field intensity are presented. Based on the test results, strength curves were constructed and a formula for the dependence of the strength of the composite on the electric field intensity and the MCNT percentage was obtained.
