Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of defects in tubes: Part 1. Mode I delamination resistance

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the severity of defects in filament would tubes composites based on two types of resins, an epoxy and a vinylester, and determined the properties of flat filament wound unidirectional glass fibre reinforced composite plates using these resins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon/polyamide 6 thermoplastic composite cylinders for deep sea applications

TL;DR: In this article, the authors designed, manufactured and tested thermoplastic composite pressure vessels for 4500m depth, in order to establish a technical, economic and ecological assessment of the use of these materials to replace traditional composites underwater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidation of unvulcanized, unstabilized polychloroprene: A kinetic study

TL;DR: In this paper, a mechanistic scheme involving unimolecular and bimolecular hydroperoxide decomposition, oxygen addition to alkyl radicals, hydrogen abstraction on allylic methylenes, alkyyl and peroxyl additions to double bonds and terminations involving alkyls and peroxy radicals was elaborated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of Mechanical Behaviour of a Bulk Epoxy Adhesive in a Marine Environment

TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to predict the behavior of an epoxy adhesive in bulk form in a marine environment is described, and the experimental conditions and the predictive framework are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

The short‐ and long‐term mechanical properties of filled and unfilled thermotropic liquid crystalline polymer injection moldings

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of fillers on the short and long-term mechanical properties of Vectra injection moldings was investigated. But the results showed that the effects of the fillers had little effect on the anisotropic properties of the materials.
