Abstract
Adhesively bonding composite components is a reliable alternative to conventional joining processes that minimizes part weight and reduces fabrication costs. Regarding performance and reliability, of particular interest is developing adherend surface treatments that enhance adhesion of the joint interfaces in aggressive chemical environments. Using fracture mechanics-based adhesion metrologies, critical and subcritical crack growth were...
