MÜLLER MIROSLAV. 2016. Experimental Research on Load Capacity, Treatment of Adhesively Bonded Surface and Failure Process of Structural T-joint. Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 64(2): 473–479. In this paper the mechanical behaviour of structural two-component epoxy adhesives in T-joints is experimentally investigated. The aim of this study is to analyse t...

The present work has used an accelerated test method, based upon cyclic-fatigue testing using a fracture-mechanics approach, to study the durability of organosilanepretreated joints which were adhesively-bonded using a hot-cured epoxy-film adhesive. The silane primer investigated was γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPS). The cyclic-fatigue tests were mainly conducted in (a) a ‘dry’ environme...
