Sailing requires strategic maneuvers and a level of trust from the captain. The 2012 Olympic sailing events will take place in the open waters of Weymouth Bay and Portland Harbour, where the conditions are ever-changing. Therefore, the athletes must have complete confidence in their crafts.
To battle the waters, sailboat materials must have exceptional thermal tolerance, water resistance, and a high surface finish for the structural elements. Since resins and composites with resin matrices have these qualities, they are widely used in the nautical sector.
This creates a need for Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT) testing on resins and composites with resin matrices to meet two Standards: ISO 75 and/or ASTM D648.
