EFFECT OF ELEVATED TEMPERATURES ON STRENGTH PROPERTIES OF REINFORCED PLASTIC LAMINATES

Abstract

Several reinforced plastic laminates that have shown promise of having good strength properties at elevated temperatures have been investigated to determine their strength within their useful range of temperature and duration of exposure. Results of tension, compression, and interlaminar shear evaluations are summaraized for six laminates after exposure to temperatures ranging from room temperature to 1,000 degrees F and soak periods ranging from about 2 minutes to 1,000 hours.
