A Hybrid Multi-functional Composite Material by Co-curing Lay-up Process for Enhanced Thermal/Chemical Stability and Surface Durability

Abstract

This proposal is to develop a hybrid, multifunctional composite material that is an improvement upon the thermal and chemical stability, and surface durability of traditional polymer composites. Such hybrid multifunctional composite materials can be applied in higher temperature and harsher environment than current typical polymer based composites, and can be utilized especially in naval and marine parts for enhanced strength and durability (salty and high moisture environment).
