Results


Experimental characterization and phenomenological material modelling

Curing reaction and degree of cure: Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

Cold curing 2 component epoxy adhesive:

  • Curing reaction not stoppable at room temperature
  • Partial gelation only conditionally possible

Heat curing 1 component polyurethane adhesive:

  • Curing reaction initiated only at temperatures >80°C
  • Reaction can be interrupted by cooling down
  • Partial gelation possible

 

Mechanical properties

Cold curing 2 component epoxy adhesive:

  • Viscoelastic behaviour
  • Moderate strains
  • Glass transition temperature within temperature range of application

Heat curing 1 component polyurethane adhesive:

  • Elastomeric behaviour
  • Large strains
  • Relaxation (viscoelasticity)

 

Thermomechanically coupled material model

Cold curing 2 component epoxy adhesive:

  • Viskoelastic model based on generalized Maxwell model
  • Equilibrium stress formulated by rate-type elasticity with process-dependent stiffness

Heat curing 1 component polyurethane adhesive:

  • Application of the MORPH-model to simulate the basic elastomeric behaviour
