Abstract
Abstract Structural, heat-resistant thermoplastic adhesives were evaluated in single lap bonds. The amorphous thermoplastics tested were polyphenylquinoxaline, glass filled Ultem polyetherimide, unfilled Ultem polyetherimide, and Victerex polyethersulfone. The adherend was chromic acid anodized Ti-6Al-4V, tested unprimed and primed with Lica 44 titanate. Initial bond strengths were similar for all adhesives. In general, Lica 44 titanate primer did not affect bond strength. Bond strength was not influenced by 170°C ageing, but 232°C ageing did decrease bond strength when polyphenylquinoxaline was the adhesive. Failure occurred primarily in the adhesive fillet and propagated into the unprimed or primed anodic oxide/polymer interphase.
