Adherend effect on the peel strength of a brittle adhesive
| Resumo: | Peel tests are widely used to characterize the peel strength of bonded joints and control adhesion quality. There are various configurations of peel test, such as the T-peel test, peel testing at 180°, the floating roller peel test, and the climbing drum peel test. These methods have been widely used mainly in the aeronautical industry, as a way of assessing the peel strength of metallic joints. However, with the growing use of composite materials in industry, it is necessary to characterize bonded joints with these materials when subjected to peeling loads. In this research, the adherend effect on the peel strength of a brittle adhesive is experimentally studied using the floating roller peel test with the aim of evaluating how adherend changes affect adhesion properties of brittle adhesives and also to assess the viability of using the floating roller peel test in composite-to-composite and composite-to-aluminum joints, as well as make a comparison with aluminum-aluminum joint performance. It is also intended to prove the applicability of this test for quality control of adhesion and determination of peel strength in joints with composite materials. The results show the Araldite® AV138 performance falls within the characteristic values of peel strength of other structural adhesives, particularly when composite adherends are concerned, and with reasonable repeatability considering it is a brittle adhesive. |
