Effects of hygrothermal aging on the fatigue behavior of two toughened epoxy adhesives
Abstract
Aged open-faced asymmetric double cantilever beam (ADCB) specimens made with two different rubber-toughened epoxy adhesives were subject to cyclic loading under mixed-mode conditions. The contrasting results illustrated the effects of environmental degradation on the matrix and toughener. The fatigue threshold strain energy release rate, Gth, and the crack growth rates of adhesive 1 degraded in two stages: Gth initially decreased with aging time...
