An experimental investigation focusing on the hygrothermal aging-structural degradation mechanical property relationship of GLARE 4A laminates was conducted. Water immersion conditioning at 80 degrees C for up to 4 months was carried out on GLARE 4A laminates. It was found that although the outer aluminum layers effectively protected the glass/epoxy composite layers from hygrothermal attack, the composite layers absorbed moisture through the edges. Consequently, significant decrease in both, the tensile strength and fatigue life of the GLARE 4A laminates, was observed although no structural defects were apparently identifiable in the microstructures of the conditioned laminates. Detailed experimental investigation was conducted to study the mechanism of mechanical property decay due to hygrothermal aging. It is proposed that the strength of the S2-glass fibers was not fully realized due to the weakening of the fiber/matrix interface and the deterioration of the sizing, which consequently led to the reduction in the tensile strength and fatigue life of the GLARE 4A laminates. The stiffness degradation characteristics of GLARE 4A laminates under cyclic loading were also investigated. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
