Abstract
A theory for the effect of shrinkage stresses on the peel strength of a joint between rubber and glass is developed. The theory suggests that shrinkage weakens the joint, the weakening becoming more noticeable with rise in shrinkage strain and rubber film thickness. Peeling experiments on a rubber-glass bond verify the theory and justify a discussion of shrinkage in butt joints.
