**Abstract**
 Three grades of commercially available glass fibres were subjected to surface treatments specially formulated and optimised to enhance the affinity of the fibre surfaces to either the polycarbonate phase, ABS phase or both phases of polycarbonate/ABS composites made therefrom and the effect of the surface treatments on the mechanical properties of the composites investigated through microstructural observations. Fibre length distribution, fibre orientation and morphological properties of the fibre-matrix interfacial regions were examined and correlated with the mechanical properties of the composites obtained by three-point bending and Charpy impact testing.
