Abstract:In the building industry, polymeric matrix composites filled with glass, carbon, graphite, polypropylene, or Kevlar filaments are commonly used. However, it is notable that the wider use of composites is limited by a lack of sound knowledge regarding their properties their responses to exposure to various environments. In this respect, the alkaline and acid environments may have a significant influence on the response of epoxyglass composites which are most commonly in use. They may undergo stress corrosion an… Show more
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.
