    Study Notes

    Adhesive Failure

    • Adhesive failure occurs when the adhesive itself separates from the substrate or the adherend.
    • This can happen due to the adhesive having insufficient strength to withstand tensile or shear forces in the interface.
    • It's often a consequence of improper surface treatment, inadequate curing, or using inappropriate adhesive types.

    Causes of Adhesive Failure

    • Poor surface preparation: Insufficient cleaning, etching, etc. may lead to insufficient bonding.
    • Contamination: Presence of dust, debris, moisture, or other contaminants can weaken the bond.
    • Improper curing or processing: Incomplete curing or errors in the curing process can lead to inadequate bond strength.
    • Incompatibility of materials: Adhesives and substrates with different properties may not bond effectively, leading to failure.
    • Thickness: Excessive adhesive thickness can hinder bonding due to insufficient surface energy and inadequate wettability.
    • Incorrect application techniques: Incorrect procedure leads to defects within the interface.

    Mechanical Interlocking

    • Mechanical interlocking occurs when the rough surface of an adherend and an adhesive provide an area for strong retention due to the surface irregularities.
    • The adhesive can penetrate into the microscopic crevices and grooves, increasing the bonding area.
    • Microscopic undercuts contribute to strong mechanical adhesion through the intimate fit of one surface into the crevices of another.
    • Also, the adhesive can enhance these effects by filling these undercuts.

    Chemical Adhesion

    • Chemical adhesion depends on the formation of chemical bonds between the adhesive and the adherend.
    • There are weak and strong chemical mechanisms which contribute towards adhesion.
    • The chemical interactions between different molecules can create a more durable bond compared to the mechanical mechanism.
