Investigation of accumulated laser fluence and bondline thickness effects on adhesive joint performance of CFRP composites
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract In the present study, both the effects of accumulated laser fluence as surface treatment and bondline thickness on adhesive bonding of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials were investigated. Proper CFRP composite surfaces for adhesive bonding were obtained by a laser treatment process using pulsed CO2 laser. Laser treatments were obtained with different accumulated laser fluences and then surfaces were analyzed with roughness and contact angle measurements. Adhesive bonding was performed with various bondline thicknesses ranged between 30–500 µm using two component structural epoxy based paste adhesive (Loctite Hysol ® EA 9396TM). Adhesive bonding strength of bonded samples was determined with single lap shear tests. It is worthy to note that if the accumulated laser fluence which has significant effect on shear strength does not optimize, it causes ineffective adhesion.
