High-toughness graphite/epoxy composite material experimentThe experiment was designed to measure the effect of near-space exposure on mechanical properties of specially toughened 5208/T300 graphite-epoxy composites. The properties measured are elastic modulus, strength, and fracture toughness. Specimens were mounted on an external frame during the time of the LDEF mission. Specimen variables include angle of adjacent plies and fraction of interlaminar contact, which is controlled by the fraction of finely spaced holes in Mylar film placed between the prepreg monolayers of the composite.
