Abstract
This experimental study investigates the effects of sea water and thermal cycling conditions on strength of adhesive lap joints made for fiber metal laminate (FML) and 430 stainless steel adherends subjected to standard tensile impact loading condition. The FMLs (three and five layers) were fabricated using 430 stainless steel sheets and fiberglass prepreg layers. The joints are kept in the sea water taken for 30 days in the laboratory. Some of the specimens are then thermally cycled in an oven (5 and 10 cycles, 40/100 °C, dwell time 20 min) and also the others are kept in liquid N2 (5 and 10 cycles, −40/−100 °C, dwell time 10 min), and afterwards tested. Experimental results shown that the absorbed energy by adhesive lap joint specimens that are subjected to sea water is reduced. The adhesive joint strength is improved at high thermal cycling, but decreased at cryogenic temperatures with respect to sea water without thermal cycling.
