The Effect of Surface Pretreatments on the Reliability of Glass Bonded Joints
Source abstract
Abstract
This paper focuses on the evaluation of the surface pretreatment of glass specimens and its effect on the strength of bonded joints. The experimental portion of this study includes the testing of three types of surface treatments (degreasing, blasting and etching) and the use of three types of adhesives (two-component epoxy, instant cyanoacrylate and two-component acrylate). Surface roughness measurements and bond strength testing using the pull-off test and shear tests were performed on the samples. The results showed that surface etching in conjunction with the Auratech AR 708 acrylic adhesive provided the highest bond strength. These findings contribute to the development of more reliable and stronger bonded joints for industrial applications. Scientific knowledge lies in determining the effect of appropriate glass surface treatment on adhesive adhesion under load with respect to joint aging due to environmental effects (UV, temperature, humidity) for transparent adhesives. This study provides an assessment of the effect of surface cleanliness on adhesion to glass.
