Effect of Saltwater Aging on the Mechanical Performance of Polyethylene Matrix Glass, Basalt, and Hybrid Fiber Reinforced Composites
In this study, the long-term mechanical performance of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) matrix composites reinforced with glass, basalt, and glass/basalt hybrid fibers in a marine environment was investigated. Composite specimens produced by the hot-press method were aged in a 3% NaCl saltwater solution for five months....
