Overview

Randomized trial evaluates durability of adhesive-bonded joints under varied environmental conditions, indicating significant strength reduction.

Key Points

  • The aim is to assess the durability of adhesive-bonded mild steel joints under different aging conditions.
  • Applied four environmental cyclic aging conditions (0–4 weeks).
  • Characterized joints through shear strength-displacement behavior and failure mode analysis.
  • Conducted fracture surface analysis to identify failure mechanisms.
  • Strength decreased by 69% after 4 weeks in a marine environment.
  • Land and air cycling and thermal-humidity-freeze cycling resulted in reductions of 60% and 53%, respectively.
  • Aged joints showed a shift from adhesive-cohesive mixed failure to predominantly interfacial failure.
