Dear all,
Is there a database that provides the vulnerability/degradability information of different matrix toward weathering (i.e. the matrix of product used for outdoor application: paint, range of polymer, cement, glass). The data could be in the mass loss by surface by the time of weathering or by energy, if you not possible to get quantitative information, qualitative data could work. Quantitative information and mechanisms detail could be terrific :).
Thanks in advance for any of your responses and your time.
Best regards,
Nathan Bossa
No there are no available database for MDM of materials used for exterior applications. People have not thought of it because World is on a path to reduce Carbon footprint and the materials you have mentioned they are combinations of different materials and they can be of different types. All of them contribute more to CF so the trend was not to dig deeper as the material itself did not have a specific mix combination.
But if you wish to do a research on that the would be a breakthrough if you can prove that materials which have low CF have lesser degradation value and materials with high CF have higher degradation value.
