Across-the-Thickness Gradient of the Interlaminar Shear Strength of a CFRP After Its Long-Term Exposure to a Marine Climate

  • Published:
Mechanics of Composite Materials Aims and scope

The gradient of the interlaminar shear strength of a CFRP after its long-term exposure to a marine climate was investigated. After a 10-year-long exposure to the climate, the strength of 13-mm-thick composite specimens was found to be 5 MPa in the surface layers and 41 MPa in the middle ones.
