Notizen:
Dipole relaxation dielectric loss behavior of a fiberglass-epoxy composite has been studied as a function of moisture uptake. A single widely distributed loss peak, centered at -16°C for 10 kHz measurement, is observed in the dry composite. Very low moisture concentrations (〈0.1%) interact with the composite, through either dipole pairing or by inducing chemical changes, to decrease loss intensity. At moisture concentrations from 0.1 to 1.4%, loss peak intensity generally increases with moisture uptake. Over this moisture concentration range water dipoles presumably relax in phase with the epoxy segments or side groups upon which they adsorb. Arrhenius relaxation activation energy decreases, and improved loss peak definition at increasing moisture concentrations is interpreted as indicating resin plasticization by adsorbed moisture. At moisture concentrations above 1.4%, the appearance of a second loss peak suggests formation of a new colloidal or weakly adsorbed moisture phase, as well as the saturation of primary adsorption sites.
