- Additional information
- In the infrastructural composite market, sensors to assess materials durability are lacking. In this paper, nanocomposite-based sensors were designed and fabricated as alternatives to expensive optical sensors, to track down the effect of aggressive environments on composite durability. Both experimental and numerical studies are carried out to understand the kinetic mechanism occurring during acid penetration behaviour of aggressive chemicals on composites. And finally, the wireless sensor was developed based on carbon nanomaterials and near field communication-radio frequency technology.
