Which risk increases upon thermal cycling of epoxy-bonded composite joints?

💡 Explanation

Edge debonding risk specifically increases, caused by differential thermal expansion creating high local stresses exceeding the epoxy's, because thermal expansion coefficients differ significantly. Therefore bond separation occurs, rather than oxidation or hydrolysis that are time/temperature dependent.
