The effect of hot-wet storage aging on the mechanical response of a carbon fiber polyether ether ketone (PEEK)-matrix woven composite has been studied. A wide range of static loads and selected cyclic load tests on the interlaminar fatigue strength were performed. Static tests were conducted in batch mode, including on- and off-axis tension, compression, flexure, interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and fracture tests in Modes I, II and I/II. Respective mechanical properties have been determined, indicating a degrading effect of aging on strength-related properties. The measured response in general, as well as the variance quantified by batch-mode test execution, indicated the appropriateness of the applied standards on the material under consideration, especially in the case of fracture tests. The material properties presented in the current work may provide a useful basis towards preliminary design with PEEK-based woven thermoplastic composites during service in aerospace applications.
