What happens when an adhesive bond is tested in tension?

One of three things may happen: adhesive failure, cohesive failure of the adhesive, or cohesive failure of the adherend (correct)

The adhesive junction always fails due to adhesive failure

Adhesive failure and cohesive failure of the adhesive occur simultaneously

The bond becomes stronger due to the increased tension

What is the effect of a thinner adhesive film on the adhesive junction?

It increases the number of air voids

It reduces the strength of the adhesive junction

It allows for more intimate contact and reduces thermal stresses (correct)

It has no effect on the adhesive junction

What type of bonds produce stronger adhesion?

Cohesive bonds within the adherend

Cohesive bonds within the adhesive

Primary bonds between adhesive and adherend (correct)

Secondary bonds between adhesive and adherend
