Composite material is a new material prepared by several raw materials with different forms or properties through new processing methods. The composite not only maintains the advantages of the properties of each component but also can obtain the comprehensive properties that cannot be achieved by a single component through the complementarity and correlation of the properties of each component. The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of wet and hot conditions on the interlaminar fracture toughness and durability of composites. In this paper, the interlaminar fracture toughness and durability are studied, and the prediction and analysis method under wet and hot conditions is carried out. The effects of hot and humid conditions on interlaminar fracture toughness and durability were analyzed. The experimental results show that the longitudinal compressive strength of the unidirectional composite at 120°C and 1.00% moisture absorption is 29.53% lower than that at 20°C and 0.50% moisture absorption. Due to the high moisture absorption of aramid fiber, the longitudinal compressive strength of unidirectional aramid composite fiber will be significantly reduced in the humid and warm environment.
