Abstract
The adhesion strength and dismantlability of adhesion joints using novel technique of dismantlable adhesive. The adhesive, which include water absorbing polymer and can be expanded in water is capable to be separated by absorbing water after the service life. The most typical mode of fracture is interfacial fracture between the surface of adherends and the adhesive due to the force caused by the expansion of the adhesive. In this paper, The relation between soaking time of the joints in water and COD or energy release rate was investigated experimentally.
