Fiber‐Reinforced Bio‐Epoxy Composites: Degradation Mechanisms in Saline Environment
Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Constituent level degradation of bio‐epoxy composites after saline aging. ABSTRACT This study examines the degradation behavior of bio‐epoxy composites reinforced with glass, basalt, carbon, and flax fiber yarns in a simulated saline environment. Fiber yarns and composite samples were exposed to 3.5% NaCl solution at 60°C for up to 3000 h.
