This article focuses on the moister sorption by laminated composites. Moisture sorption was carried out on layered polymer composite materials consisting of layers of basalt fabric and fiberglass based on epoxy-diane resin. It is shown that the process of moisture absorption for glass fiber-reinforced polymers is more intense and with a higher concentration of moisture in comparison with basalt fiber-reinforced polymer. Curves of the sorption processes of moisture absorption and water absorption are obtained. The diffusion coefficients for the corresponding processes are calculated. Alteration in the surface structure of polymer composite materials were recorded using surface topography and REM images before and after exposure in the climate of Yakutsk (Russia).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
