Oriented monolayers are employed as effective adhesives in the bonding of polyethylene to aluminum. Several monolayers are characterized and their physical properties elucidated. Measurement of the tensile shear and peel strength of polyethylene bonded to aluminum indicate that the bonds formed exceed the cohesive strength of the polymer. Contact angle and radioactive trace experiments helped to determine the conditions for maximum adhesion.
