Description
This chapter reviews established methods in detecting corrosion for fiber-reinforced polymer composites during their service life. Corrosion of fiber-reinforced polymer composites leads to mechanical properties degradation such as strength, stiffness, and dimensional stability. Fiber-reinforced polymer composites exhibit corrosion from oxidation, hydrolysis, radiation, thermal degradation, and dehydration. Structures require periodic inspection in order to detect early corrosion formation, thus preventing catastrophic disasters. The corrosion detection techniques applied to fiber-reinforced polymer composites are categorized into destructive physical analysis (DPA), nondestructive evaluation (NDE), and mathematical modeling using semianalytical finite element (SAFE). In this chapter, all techniques are discussed based on their advantages and limitations to provide essential understanding as well as economic and industrial solutions in the applicable industries.
