Abstract

The lap shear strength and fracture behavior of two-part acrylic-based adhesive was investigated. Shear tests were carried out using single lap joints. Commercially available acrylic adhesive was used as adhesive. Glass fabric reinforced polypropylene matrix composite (GF/PP) was used as adherends. Aluminum alloy (5052-H34) was also used as adherends for comparison purpose. Three types of surface treatment were prepared: as-received with ethanol cleaning, as-received with acetone cleaning, sandblasted with acetone cleaning. Lap shear tests were performed using a universal testing machine. Strain gauges were used to obtain the elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio of adherend, and deformation behavior of lap joint for adhesive and adherend parts. It was found that the lap shear strength for as-received with acetone cleaning treatment was highest in the other treatment and was almost similar to that for aluminum alloy adherend one. The release agent of GF/PP could not be removed by ethanol cleaning and the surface of GF/PP was damaged by sandblasting.
