Abstract

Moisture absorption degrades interfacial strength and induces expansional strains in fibre-polymer composites. These strains subsequently affect the abrasive wear behaviour of composites subjected to boiling water treatment. A wear model is suggested, which quantitatively estimates the wear performance of boiling-water-treated glass-polyester composites. The theoretical model is in concurrence with experimental results.
