Our aim was to study the influence of the surface treatment process on the mechanical properties of an adhesive. This study takes aluminum alloy 6061 as the substrate; carries out grinding, sandblasting, plasma, grinding + plasma, and sandblasting + plasma surface treatment processes; and chooses the ISR 7008 adhesive to make aluminum alloy butt joints, and the joints Connectors are in −40 °C, −20 °C, 0 °C, 40 °C, 60 °C, and 80 °C environments, respectively (1–3 days of a constant-temperature test). The results show that the plasma surface treatment process helps to improve the activity and hydrophilicity of the bonding surface; the plasma surface treatment process helps to improve the adhesive strength of the joints under the environment of −40 °C and 80 °C; and under the environment of −20–60 °C, the sandblasting + plasma surface treatment process helps to improve the adhesive strength of the joints. By analyzing the infrared spectra of the ISR 7008 adhesive, it was found that the contents of γN−H, νC−C, νC−N, and νC−O were higher in the interval from 25 °C to 80 °C than those in the interval from −40 °C to 0 °C, which resulted in the decrease in adhesive properties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
