Suspicious areas
were then subjected to chemical analysis, in which the primer,
adhesive, and titanium surfaces revealed potential factors that
could compromise bonding integrity.

Continuous fiber reinforced thermoset composites combine high molecular weight resins with glass or carbon fibers.
However, design flexibility is limited because, as thermosets, finished parts cannot be post-formed.
