Analysis of production parameters of single-lap bonds adhesive bonded with composites based on aluminium filler

摘要

In the area of bonding of sheets of metals, mainly in construction of transport and agricultural machines, single-lap bonds are used. In manufacturing corporations focused on bonding of the metal sheets the technologies such as riveting, welding and adhesive bonding are particularly used. These methods are frequently combined. The aim of the research was the evaluation of lap length of alloy AlCu4Mg adhesively bonded using two component epoxy adhesive, which is commonly used in construction of machines and its modification based in addition of filler in form of aluminium microparticles. The secondary aim of the research was to ascertain the influence of microparticle volume of aluminium filler on mechanical properties of polymer particle composite.Strength of adhesively bonded joint depends on the thickness of the bonded material. Strength of the adhesively bonded joint is dependent on the lapping length of adhesively bonded material. The highest values of strength of adhesively bonded joint werereached with the coefficient of the proportional length 0.27 + 0.01. The assumption about negative effect of filler on tensile strength during the experiments was not confirmed.
