The Effect of Surface Treatment on the Interfacial Strength of Corrosion Resistant Glass Fibres in a Vinylester Resin

  • Chapter
Developments in the Science and Technology of Composite Materials

Abstract

The effect of aqueous conditioning on the bond strength of AR glass fibre-vinyl ester resin composites has been investigated using the embedded single filament tensile test. Two fibre coatings were compared, one containing A1100 (γ amino propyl triethoxysilane) silane coupling agent and the other without. The results provide evidence for the existence of physisorbed and chemisorbed layers on the fibre surface. The former was removed by immersion in warm water whereas the latter is tenaciously bound to the surface, providing protection against boiling water and sulphuric acid.
