Composite Degradation

Composite Degradation is a material degradation phenomenon characterized by the progressive deterioration of composite materials in marine environments due to synergistic interactions between physicochemical aging, moisture absorption, hydrolytic breakdown, and mechanical stress, distinguishing it from the degradation of homogeneous metallic or polymer substrates by involving multi-phase failure mechanisms at the matrix-fiber interface.
