The overall objective of the proposal is to improve performance of polymer matrix composite materials for cryogenic tank applications. The specific objectives of the program are: 1. Determine the effect of cryogenic exposure on PMCs, particularly on the interphase region. 2. Examine failed composite cryogenic tanks at the nanometer-level and higher to understand failure mechanisms. 3. Develop protocols to determine appropriate polymer curing to achieve better PMC performance in cryogenic tank applications.
