Özet
The focus Of this work is the thermal aging of high-performance fibres, Kevlar and Nomex, Accelerated thermal aging tests were carried out on fabric samples made up of 100% Kevlar, 100% Nomex and their combinations. Fabrics were thermal were subjected to thermal aging treatments at 220 C and 300 C temperatures for various time periods. The effects Of thermal aging were evaluated through mass loss and tensile strength tests. The study revealed that the structure and properties of specimens changed after each thermal exposure, but the magnitude of changes varied with material type, temperature and cumulative duration of exposure.
