THE EFFECT OF CRYOGENIC TEMPERATURES ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF REINFORCED PLASTIC LAMINATES

Abstract

The tensile properties of four reinforced plastic laminates (Conolon 522, Conolon 527, Conolon 534 and Narmco 406-181) were investigated. A survey was made on information on the properties of reinforced plastic laminates at cryogenic temperatures, and the influence of resin system, cure cycle, resin content, etc. are discussed. The survey includes data on tensile, flexural and compressive properties, as well as some data on fatigue properties, shear strength, impact strength and notched tensile strength.
