    <title language="eng">Long-Term Behavior of Thermoplastics under UV Light tested by a self-build Device</title>
    <abstract language="eng">This article presents first results of artificial aging experi-ments  by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on thermoplasticmaterials conducted as an intent of the research project Thermoplastic Composite Structures (TheCoS) in colla-boration of the Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule(OTH) Regensburg and the University of West Bohemia(UWB) in Pilsen as part of a cross-border cooperation. In technical applications, thermoplastic materials are oftenaffected by aging and a related deterioration of the mechanical properties. Therefore, it is necessary to identifythe aging behavior of thermoplastic materials. For this,experiments  were performed for three  thermoplasticmaterials, namely polypropylene (PP), ultra high mole -cular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and high impactstrength polystyrene (HIPS). For these experiments, a UV chamber was constructed according to the internationalstandard EN ISO 4892-3 for simulation of exposurebehind window glass. The results are evaluated by testing the flexural strength and the dynamic mechanicalresponse after a selected period of time under UV lightand then compared to untreated test specimens.</abstract>
