Preliminary results from the LDEF/UTIAS composite materials experimentA total of 107 epoxy matrix composite samples containing carbon, boron, and aramid fiber reinforcements were flown on the Long Duration Exposure Facility (LDEF) satellite. For the first 371 days after deployment, strain and temperature data were recorded every 16 hours. Results were obtained on time to outgas, dimensional changes, coefficients of thermal expansion, atomic oxygen erosion, and damage due to micrometeoroid/debris impacts.
