Prestressed polymeric matrix composites: Longevity aspects (2015)
Journal Article
Fazal, A., & Fancey, K. S. (2016). Prestressed polymeric matrix composites: Longevity aspects. Polymer composites, 37(7), 2092-2097. https://doi.org/10.1002/pc.23387

Elastically pre-stressed polymeric matrix composites (EPPMCs) are produced by stretching fibers (e.g. glass) within the composite during matrix curing. The resulting pre-stress can enhance mechanical performance, without increasing section dimensions... Read More about Prestressed polymeric matrix composites: Longevity aspects.
