Local delamination on heavily deformed polymer–metal interfaces: evidence from microscopy

Numerical–experimental assessment of roughness-induced metal–polymer interface failure

“…The presence of interface damage in these materials was experimentally verified by Faber et al, 2014. They explored cross-sections of the deformed polymer-steel interface in DRD cans.…”

“…Laser-induced delamination experiments by Fedorov et al, 2007 showed a similar result. Recent results from Faber et al, 2014 revealed the presence of interface damage in DRD materials by exploring the interface in cross-sections using Focused Ion Beam milling. These papers suggest that the deformation-induced roughening of the interface is the cause of the loss of adhesion and possible delamination.…”

Preventing interface damage by pre-conditioning polymer-coated steels via rolling

“…Recent experimental results revealed that deformation-induced roughening of the polymer-steel interface plays an important role in the initiation and growth of interface damage (Faber et al, 2013). During production, the polymer-steel interface experiences a significant change in roughness due to the deformation-induced roughening of the steel substrate material.…”

“…ECCS profile just before fracture (b) principle simulations, parameters are required that are characteristic for small-scale de-bonding (Faber et al, 2013). The work of separation determined by Fedorov et al (2007) is used here.…”

Predicting deformation-induced polymer–steel interface roughening and failure

“…Deformation-induced surface roughening of steels and other crystalline materials is common in many engineering applications. This change in surface roughness can lead to several problems during manufacturing [2,4,16,28], for example: (1) a detrimental effect on the surface finish of sheet metal; (2) a change in friction, wear and corrosion resistance; (3) localization phenomena which may lead to failure; or (4) local delamination of a coating.…”
