  • considerations for the industrial application of Structural Adhesive joints in the aluminium composite material bonding
    Composites Part B-engineering, 2013
    Co-Authors: Jose M Arenas, Cristina Alia, Julian J Narbon, Raymundo Ocaña, Cristina Gonzalez
    Abstract:

    Abstract The composite materials of the polymeric matrix reinforced with carbon fibre have an extensive industrial application as they provide light and resistant structures. However, in many products (automobiles, aircraft, etc.) the Structural Adhesive parts must be joined to other components manufactured with aluminium alloys. The use of Structural Adhesive to carry out these bonds may be a good alternative if a specific design of the Adhesive joint is carried out maximising its performance and reducing its limitations. In this respect, one of the most relevant aspects of the design of the joint consists of the selection of the Structural Adhesive and the most appropriate surface treatment for the substratum. The present paper describes a procedure to optimise this decision by means of the combination of experimental techniques with multi-criteria decision tools. This methodology allows selecting, amongst the various alternatives, the Adhesive and surface treatment better combining mechanical performance and adaptation to the manufacturing process. Thus, it has been concluded that polyurethane Adhesive with a peel ply surface treatment for carbon fibre, and sandpapered for aluminium, are the best alternatives.

  • proposal for the graphic representation of Structural Adhesive joints in engineering drawings and their integration in a computer assisted designing system
    International Journal of Adhesion and Adhesives, 2007
    Co-Authors: Jose M Arenas, Antonio Guillamon
    Abstract:

    Currently the process used by designers to specify the features of Structural Adhesive joints consists of writing explanatory notes on the assembly plans. Thus, there is no graphic standard for these joints that allows us synthesise the technical information on the plans, in contrast to what happens with other joining processes, such as those of welding or riveting. For this reason, a graphic standard is proposed to draw these joints, unifying and simplifying the technical design criteria, and facilitating the exchange of unambiguous information throughout the entire project stages. The development of a computer-aided design (CAD) application, including the proposed graphic standard, together with the general design criteria of Structural Adhesive joints, provides a comprehensive tool for the project, facilitating the design of the Adhesive joint and improving the quality and interpretation of the assembly plans.
