Influence of Hydrothermal Aging under Two Typical Adhesives on the Failure of BFRP Single Lap Joint
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
I would like to thank, the editor of the Polymer for trusting me to review the paper “Influence of hydrothermal aging under two typical adhesives 1 on the failure of BFRP single lap joint”
My decision regarding the current work is accepted with minor changes as listed below:
- The literature review section need modification as limited papers from 2021 and 2022 are included in this section.
- Why the current aging times were selected? Any special reason for this?
- What will be the effect of load ratting effect in tensile testing on the tested specimens?
- The resolution of Figure 12 is very poor, I will suggest to improve it for readers.
- Can the authors include limitations of the current work in terms of dynamic thermal loading?

Reviewer 2 Report
The subject of the work is a strength analysis of the glued joint of elements. The lap joint was tested. Experimental measurements were made to determine the strength of the connection. Accepting cut oars as a sample is not a fully accurate solution. Although such a solution is accepted. Glued joints are tested according to specific standards. The presented work is quite extensive. The authors present a good researcher's technique. The introduction and analysis of the literature are correct and provide a good background for the research. The article is a kind of research report. The presented figures and tables are clear and the descriptions are in the main text. The conclusions formulated are correct.
