Therefore, it is not surprising that in many of these applications they can be exposed to hostile environments, which can affect the mechanical performance of such materials. Therefore, the main goal of this work was to study the effect of immersion into different hostile solutions on the impact strength and, subsequently, to evaluate the residual fatigue life. For this purpose, the specimens were initially immersed into solutions of hydrochloric acid (HCl), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), sulphuric acid (H2SO4), diesel, distilled water, and seawater. Subsequently, the specimens were subjected to impact loads with an energy of 12 J and, finally, subjected to fatigue loads to assess the residual fatigue life. Seawater and NaOH solution provided the lowest impact strength. This was confirmed by the lower energy restored and impact bending stiffness (IBS), a parameter that allows evaluating the damage resistance of a composite. In terms of restored energy, for example, the seawater promoted a decrease around 30.4% in relation to the value obtained with non-immersed samples, while this value was 27.6% for the alkaline solution (NaOH). In terms of IBS, the lowest values were also obtained with these solutions (437.4 and 444.9 N\/mm, respectively). Finally, the lowest residual fatigue life was also observed for these two solutions, and it was noticed that there was a direct relationship between the IBS and the residual fatigue life.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules26185520","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,12]],"date-time":"2021-09-12T21:48:01Z","timestamp":1631483281000},"page":"5520","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Effect of Hostile Solutions on the Residual Fatigue Life of Kevlar\/Epoxy Composites after Impact Loading"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"26","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5203-3670","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paulo N.
