This paper summarizes the environmentally assisted degradation of bond between steel and carbon fiber–reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites through analysis mechanical performance loaded unloaded steel/CFRP double strap joints exposed to various harsh environments such as elevated temperatures, seawater, cyclic temperature humidity, ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It was found that both joint stiffness strength significantly decreased by up 80% when tested at temperatures near or greater than Tg...
Abstract: Time dependent mechanical properties of magnetic polymer films were investigated. These films, synthesised by using solution polymerisation followed the inverse emulsion process, consist poly (MMA‐co‐MAA‐co‐BA) and different weight ratios magnetite nano‐particles. This study deals with influence nano‐particles on time hybrid copolymer films. The viscoelastic aforementioned 0, 20 40% nano particles studied. Ramp‐hold experiments performed a custom‐made tension testing apparatus to...
