Effect of Interfacial Chemical Bonding on the Strength of Adhesion of Glass- Polybutadiene Joints.

Abstract

Strong positive effects of interfacial chemical bonding on the adhesion of an elastomer layer to a glass substrate are reported. Treatment of glass slides with p-bromomethylphenylpoly-siloxane led to strong adhesion with dicarboxyterminated poly-butadiene, whereas treatment with p-tolylpolysiloxane led to weak adhesion. SEM studies confirmed the presence of adhering elastomer in the former case and not in the latter. Swelling stresses were found to discriminate between relatively strongly-bonded systems of the former type, causing earlier bond failure for less firmly bonded elastomer layers. (Author)
