Bonding technology
The research in the field of adhesive bonding is concerned with the pre-treatment and the characterization of the surface as well as with the phenomenon of adhesion.
For bonding and the bonding system technology we work together with the IWS.
- surface pre-treatment with laser and plasma technology
- for the characterization of the surface and the adhesive joints we use contact angle, roughness and coating thickness measurements, optical microscopy, REM/EDX and spectroscopical methods.
- adhesive bonding of different materials (metals, polymers, glass, wood), laser assisted adhesive bonding
- conductive adhesive bonding
- determination of bond strength and aging by environment simulation
