Abstract
In production and repair of mechanical engineering products, poor preparation of surfaces for gluing leads to a decrease in adhesion or even to the destruction of the adhesive bond. The level of strength of the adhesive bond is determined not only by the absence of contamination on the surfaces to be bonded, but also largely depends on the type of materials to be bonded, the properties of the adhesive used and the geometric parameters of the surface. The analysis results of the quality and roughness of aluminum and steel surfaces obtained by various methods of machining are discussed. The shear test results for adhesive joints are presented. The tests were carried out on adhesive joints of aluminum and steel substrates, the surfaces of which were treated with sanding belts with grit sizes P40, P80 and P120 before gluing. A metal-filled adhesive compound based on epoxy resin with the addition of 3% aluminum powder (by weight) was used as the glue. The character of destruction of the studied adhesive joints is described. Recommendations on method srelection for machining aluminum and steel materials before gluing are presented.
