Abstract
The thermohumid aging of aircraft fiberglass plastic over 5.5 years is studied. It is shown that, under conditions that simulate a tropical climate, the controlled parameters (maximal water saturation, moisture diffusion coefficient, shear modulus along the sheet plane) vary to the greatest extent after 1 year of aging, after which they stabilize. The molding conditions under which fiberglass plastic preserves high parameters under long-term exposure to a moist environment are determined.
