Abstract
An optical polarization method has been used to study the residual (internal) stresses in reinforced ED-6 epoxy resin cured with maleic anhydride. The effects of "chemical" shrinkage, volume change relaxation during during curing, and the difference linear coefficients of thermal expansion for reinforcement and resin are elucidated. It is shown that adjacent reinforcing elements interact. The stress state is investigated with reference to a model of the elementary cell of the regular structure of a unidirectional glass-reinforced plastic. The residual stresses are found as a function of the resin/reinforcement ratio.
