Hello all,
I am very new to the composite process and have completed a practice kit. The composite structure seems to be very strong. My question has to due with the temperature breakdown or Tg, I think. I have noticed that most room cured epoxy's have a Tg of 130-150. I am in the AF and travel quite a bit, and my concern is that I would park my new Cozy on a tarmac on a summer day that can radiate temperatures in this range. I have also noticed that post curing raises the Tg, however, where can you go to post cure an airplane? I guess what I am looking for is someone to give me the confidence that the plane will be structually sound even on a hot day. Thanks again.
