Prediction of the adhesive fillet size for skin to honeycomb core bonding in ultra-light sandwich structures

Abstract: a b s t r a c tThe formation of resin fillet between honeycomb core cell walls and skin in light sandwich structures was studied to gain a better understanding of the bonding process. A method was developed for tailoring the amount of adhesive between 8 and 80 g/m 2 . The size of the adhesive menisci and the contact angles between the adhesive and the skin and the core materials were measured. A model was developed to predict the size of the menisci. Their shape was driven by the surface energy of skin and hon… Show more

“…[16,17]) were found to be marginally effective and have numerous limitations restricting their application in practice due to producibility constraints, for example. [18] Therefore, a few studies have employed more compliant bondlayers in order to minimize the (most problematic) peel stresses. However, with this approach, the increase in strain-tolerance is achieved at the expense of reduced strength and stiffness of the joint.…”

“…parameters for honeycomb sandwich structures are 120 o C for 2h, whereupon the sandwich structures showed maximum mechanical properties that may be due to the formation of suitable and symmetrical fillets (Okada and Kortschot, 2002;Rion et al, 2008). Moreover, at these parameters, the honeycomb structures demonstrated the maximum peak loads prior to the deformation of the core and failure of upper facesheet.…”

“…Moreover, a mechanical pre-processing of the metallic skins based on abrasion with sandpaper tends to remove the passive oxide layer adsorbed on the surfaces, and that enhances the chemical interaction between the skin and the adhesive and increases the surface roughness [12]. Higher quantities of adhesive tend to correlate with an improved mechanical performance of the structures [13][14][15][16]. The quality of the adhesion is mostly attributed to the amount and the distribution of the adhesive layer.…”
