This article reviews the recent development of the test method for the evaluation of toughness and
durability of the interfaces in dissimilar adhesive joints. The test specimens of carbon-fiber-reinforced
thermoplastic( CFRTP) with polyamide-6( PA6) matrix and Al alloy were bonded with epoxy and urethan
structural adhesives. Double cantilever beam( DCB) test was employed for the determination of the interfacial
toughness, while the wedge test was performed for the evaluation of durability under a high-humidity and
high-temperature condition. The crack growth along the interface in DCB test was monitored with the
assistance of the mechanoluminescence( ML) for the accurate detection of the phenomena at the crack tip. It
was found that the adhesive joints were failed by various failure modes depending on the surface pretreatment
and environmental conditions. Throughout the work, discussion was made concerned with the interfacial
structures and the adhesion mechanism of the dissimilar adhesive joints.
