Studies on Adhesives

H.Influence of Temperature on the Adhesive Strength of Novolak Resin

Abstract

The Author performed an Oscilloscopic Observation on the Adhesive destruction phenomena in adhesive layer over wide temperature range, where Copper specimens were adhered with Novolak Resins.The Results obtained are as follows: Momentary and prevenient destructions are observed in Adhesion. The value of prevenient destruction percentage shows minimum at the temperature where the adhesive strength increase with temperature, and maximum at low and high temperature. Quantitative relation between thickness of adhesive layer and strength has not been obtained.
