“…Sidewalls and roofs of lightweight structures, doors, partitions, wind shields, solar protection, and many other areas of application show a wide range of uses of this technical fabric. One of the factors that promotes the high popularity of PES/PVC‐coated fabric for architectural and construction purposes is its acceptable mechanical and physical properties, advantages and useful results for engineers that have been obtained through extensive studies . However, this use is determined by the life span of a building in addition to other construction specifications and regulations.…”

The aim of this work was to investigate the physical and mechanical performance of architectural polyester (PES)-poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membranes exposed to different artificial aging conditions. Two commercially available architectural membranes were chosen as research objects. The durability of the PES/PVC fabrics was evaluated by the loss in mechanical performance, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis in order to understand the effect of the degradation agents on the surface of the membranes. The mechanical performance of the PES/PVC membranes was unchanged. Scanning electron microscopy images of the tested materials showed initial cracks after aging. The X-ray fluorescence analysis showed that at the time of aging, the amount of Cl and Si decreased slightly, while Ti decreased by half, and Ca by volume increased twice. Dr. Virginija Sacevi cienė planned the aging of the materials and the qualitative tests after aging, performed some of the aging tests, carried out mechanical testing and analysis, supervised the research, and wrote the manuscript. Dr. Milda Jucienė performed some of the aging tests, carried out color change tests and analysis, and participated in the planning of qualitative tests after aging. Dr. Vaida Dobilaitė performed literature analysis, performed some of the aging tests, and participated in the planning of qualitative tests after aging. Dr. Valentina Krylova performed some literature analysis, carried out the wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis, and identified some of the chemical compositions. Dr. Skirma Žalenkienė performed scanning electron microscopy and analysis and did morphological characterization. Dr. Njolė Dukštienė performed X-ray diffraction analysis and identified some of the chemical compositions. Dr. Raimondas Bli udžius participated in the mechanical testing of materials, analyzed the results of the research, and wrote the English version of the text and corrections after revision.

The dynamic thermo-mechanical analysis test is performed on the architectural coating fabric based on the dynamic thermo-mechanical analyzer (DMA). The effects of excitation frequency, constant temperature, and dynamic temperature on the dynamic mechanical properties of architectural membrane materials are discussed. Through analysis and discussion, the various rules of damping loss factor, loss modulus, and storage modulus of architectural membrane materials in the application temperature and frequency range are obtained. As the frequency of the external excitation force increases, the storage modulus, loss modulus, and loss factor all increase, while the influence of temperature is nonlinear. Under the action of dynamic temperature and constant temperature, the difference between storage modulus and loss modulus is obvious, but the difference of loss factor is small. Due to the anisotropy of the polyester fiber substrate, the damping characteristics of the membrane material in the warp and weft yarns are different regardless of the effect of external excitation frequency or temperature. The discussion in this article provides a theoretical basis for further research on the damping characteristics of membrane materials and the vibration response of membrane structures.

Coated fabrics are widely used in tension structures. In order to investigate the tensile behaviors of the coated fabrics, one group of specimens was cut out from multi-axial warp-knitted polyester fabrics coated with polyurethane on one side. These failure strengths of polyurethane-coated multi-axial warp-knitted fabrics were obtained by the method of uniaxial tensile test and a failure stress criterion is presented for the kind of materials. The results show that the coated fabric is anisotropic material, and the coating has great influence on the mechanical properties of the material. Furthermore, the failure stress criterion can be used for references in material design and application.
