Enhancement of adhesive bonding strength: surface roughness and wettability characterisations / Norazwani Muhammad Zain, Sahrim Hj Ahmad and Ernie Suzana Ali

In order to enhance the adhesive bonding, two different methods of surface treatments have been carried out on aluminum alloy 2024-T3 substrate i.e. alkaline etching and silane treatment. The topology and surface chemical analyses of treated alloy were investigated by AFM and XPS, respectively. The...
