Adhesive Bonding of Aluminum Alloys / Edition 1

by Edward W. Thrall, Raymond W. Shannon

Overview

This single-source reference is designed for anyone who is responsible for selecting the bestsurface treatment and a compatible adhesive for a particular design.Filled with over 300 photos, figures, and tables, Adhesive Bonding of Aluminum Alloyspresents clear analytical methods for examining the adequacy of bonded joints ... methodsfor chemical analysis of an adhesive and primer ... specific instructions on how to anodizealuminum alloys for three different surface treatments .. . recommended primers foranodized alloys ... examples that help you verify fail-safe capacity ... and more.In addition, this guide gives you the latest chemical analysis methods for control, proventest procedures for mechanical durability properties, a wide selection of nondestructive inspectionprocedures, and numerous surface analysis methods.Adhesive Bonding of Aluminum Alloys can be of immediate assistance to materials, mechanical,design, process, manufacturing, automotive, aeronautical, corrosion, and maintenanceengineers; designers and manufacturers of primary and secondary aluminum structures;adhesive scientists; testing and material specialists; and upper-division undergraduateand graduate-level researchers in materials, aeronautical design, and adhesive science.
