Abstract
Abstract A modification of the blister test permits nearly constant strain energy release rate testing of adhesive bonds. By constraining the deformation of the blister, a promising device for automated evaluation of critical strain energy release rates can be obtained. The procedure is especially amenable to viscoelastic and environmentally-assisted debonding processes. Preliminary experimental evaluation of the time-dependent adhesive fracture toughness of a tape product is included.
