Abstract

The environmental failure of double-torsion(DT) mild steel adhesive joints was investigated with particular emphasis on the process of water transmission at the interface of these joints. The joints had previously been subjected to static loading in moist conditions using specifically built apparatus. The present work is an attempt to identify this process and relate the observed changes in DT joint performance to the rate of water ingressing into the adhesive layer and the solubility of the epoxide systems.
