INFLUENCE OF ENVIRONMENT ON ROVING AND LAMINATE PROPERTIES,

Abstract

The paper discusses work done on the effect of environmental conditions, primarily on Owens-Corning's HTS-S glass roving, before and during filament winding. During storage, irreversible changes have been noticed in the HTS-S roving. Stiffness and ribbonization increase with time, rather rapidly at slightly elevated ambient temperatures. These physical property changes have been shown to cause variations in filament windings made from the aged glass. Chemical changes, responsible for the physical ones, have been identified and means of controlling both have been found.
