Adhesive bonding of composites involves the application of an adhesive between two composite materials, to create an adhesive bond after solidification. Adhesively
bonded joints are coming up as interesting alternatives to
mechanical joints for several engineering applications. These joints also offer many benefits over the conventional mechanical
fasteners.
Read on to explore the assembly and the adhesive bonding of
primary and secondary composite materials, advantages and disadvantages of adhesive bonding, different types of assembly methods and the variety of materials that can be bonded.
