Fatigue characteristics of high glass content sheet molding compound (SMC) materials
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Static and fatigue properties of high glass content sheet molding compound (SMC) materials were studied at various temperatures. It was shown that the matrix plays an important role in both fatigue characteristics and failure mechanism of such randomly oriented short fiber composites. Specifically, vinyl ester matrix shows better fatigue properties and post‐fatigue performance than the polyester system considered here.
