THE EFFECTS OF ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION (UVR) IN POLYMER-BASED COMPOSITES

Tsz-ting Wong (Hong Kong Polytechnic University) Kin-tak Lau (Hong Kong Polytechnic University) Julie Etches (University of Bristol)

 

UVR could cause serious damages to polymer-based materials. Mechanical properties of polymer-based composites under UVR exposure are studied. A ZnO filled HGF layer is introduced on FRPs for UVR protection and enhance the surface strength.
