Abstract
The composites discussed in this chapter employ high-temperature resins as matrix materials. High-temperature resins are linear or crosslinked, aromatic/heterocyclic polymers that have a high glass transition temperature (T g) and can withstand continuous exposure in air at temperatures above 600° F (316°C) without exhibiting a significant loss of structural integrity. Although these polymers do undergo thermo-oxidative degradation during elevated-temperature exposure in air, they degrade at relatively slow rates. Furthermore, it is speculated that these polymers degrade into stable residues, thus increasing their service life at elevated temperatures.
