Abstract
A multi-factor faster aging test with 5000h was carried to evaluate the aging resistance of running composite tower materials outdoor, which accelerates aging test includes different factors such as solar aging, mechanical aging, electrical aging, heat aging and environmental aging of materials. The flexural modulus retention rates of resin-based and resin-system composite samples decrease with aging time, except for the sample made of isophthalic unsaturated polyester, the flexural modulus retention rates of other composite samples are above 90%. Meanwhile, the modulus of the unsaturated polyester resin and E44 epoxy resin decreased significantly, the modulus retention of unsaturated polyester rate was 88% after aging test, and the damage flextural strength for E44 epoxy based glass fiber composite sample was 92%, while the bending strengh retention ratioes of other composite materials were higher than 96%. The multi-factor accelerated aging test results show that the modified polyurethane resin and vinyl resin have good aging resistance, and meet the application for composite materials’ poles and crossarms outdoor.
