The effects of hydrochloric acids (HCl), sulfuric acids (H2SO4), nitric acids (HNO3), and phosphoric acids (H3PO4) on the physical and mechanical properties of glass fiber/polyester composite pipes internally lined with C glass were investigated. Specimens cut from the pipes were immersed for various periods—30, 60, and 90 days in 20% acid concentration at room temperature and 100°C. The pipes consisted of 27% chopped glass fiber, 16% continuous filaments, 29% polyester resin, and 28% silica sand. Changes in weight, Charpy impact resistance, ultimate flexural strength, and hardness measured over a 3‐month period and the effects of the environment and liquid on these parameters were assessed. The hardness of the outside surface and the inside C glass‐lined surface were compared. Higher values of hardness were obtained on the C glass surface. The effects of acids on composite characteristics were studied using x‐ray diffraction test.
