Estudio experimental sobre la influencia de los fallos del proceso de fabricación en la formación de ampollas en laminados protegidos con gel-coat utilizados en ambientes marinos

Abstract

Blisters occur when small quantities of water in form

of vapour penetrate a laminate, usually within a marine

environment. This reaction generates an internal pressure

that causes degradation in Gel-Coating. Then, defects are

made evident in the form of blisters. This study looks into the

influence of this effect on different manufacturing process

defects in gel-coat protected laminates utilized in marine

environments.
