Bonding stresses through destructive laboratory tests
In the Artecol laboratory, we dedicate ourselves to the in-depth study of the performance of two-component structural adhesives and sealants, focusing particularly on their adhesion to plastic and metallic substrates. Through the use of destructive tests performed with dynamometric instruments, we can accurately measure the bond tensions that these materials can withstand, thus ensuring the identification of the most effective formulations for each specific industrial application.
These analyses allow us to evaluate the strength and durability of the bonds created, which are essential for sectors requiring highly reliable adhesive solutions. The destructive tests, conducted under controlled conditions, provide fundamental data for understanding the performance of our products under mechanical stress.
In parallel, we conduct thermal resistance tests on glued parts, exposing them to controlled temperatures that simulate the physical environmental conditions the samples may be exposed to over 2 to 10 years. These studies are vital to ensure that adhesives and sealants maintain their properties and performance over time, even in particularly challenging environments.
Through these rigorous analyses, Artecol commits to providing customized adhesive solutions that meet the durability, strength, and reliability needs of our customers, contributing to the success of their most innovative projects.
