Tensile testing of nylon and Kevlar parachute materials under Federal specified temperature and relative humidity conditions
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5078180
A small 10-ft x 12-ft temperature and relative humidity controlled room for tensile testing of parachute materials is presented. Tensile tests of nylon and Kevlar parachute materials indicate there is a negligible change in break strength of test samples soaked in the controlled environment vs samples soaked in ambient conditions.
