Abstract:

In this article the high temperature aging of epoxy pottedpolypyrrole coated polyester/nylon fabrics was investigated in order to assess whether they can be used in applications where temperature evaluation is common. A comparative analysis of various types of conductive fabrics was performed, including both woven and nonwoven, which were potted in epoxy resin and subjected to thermal aging. The results were compared with those obtained for polyimide/carbon ink coated quartz woven high temperature fabric. The results of the measurements were successfully approximated with analytical aging curves.
