The long glass-reinforced thermoplastic resins generally exhibit lower ultimate tensile stress values as a function of straining rate than do the corresponding shorter length glass-fiber reinforced resins. 

Subsequent to re-drying, weight loss in pure resin is almost zero only at 95 °C and after 1000 h, a small, permanent weight loss occurs. Figure 5.359 hottom. For short exposure times, glass fiber-reinforced resin also shows only minimal, permanent weight loss, which, however, subsequently increases with time [874]. 

The lists of exposure media provided (Tables A.50, A.52, and A.55) are white lists for laminates made from glass fiber reinforced resins (UP-/PHA-resins) with internal non-woven or chemical barrier layers. Categorized by the effect on the laminate, the exposure media are listed as follows ... 

The final component weight can be minimized, and less energy is required to melt-process SPS. This specific gravity advantage results in a 10% to 20% greater part yield per pound than other glass-fiber-reinforced resins. 

The results obtained by this test method may serve as a guide in, but not as the sole basis for, predicting the possible performance of the particular glass-fiber-reinforced thermosetting resin laminate in the one-side exposure to the specific environment under evaluation. No attempt has been made to incorporate into the test method aU of the factors that may enter into the serviceability of a glass-fiber-reinforced resin structure when subjected to chemical environments.
