Factors affecting the fracture energy of a structural adhesive

A fracture investigation was conducted on a modified epoxy adhesive (Metlbond 1113-2). Initially various adhesive fracture strength and energy tests and the mechanisms of mechanical and chemical adhesion were discussed. A critical study was then made of the sensitivity of the strain energy release r...
