Abstract

Adhesive bonding is used to join materials that are difficult to join with other joining methods. In this study, the effects of adhesive bonding curing conditions and different ambient conditions on the tensile shear loading process were investigated for dual-phase 600 steel materials that are widely preferred in the automotive industry. Steel sheets used in the automotive industry are exposed to environmental conditions at different temperatures. For this purpose, uniaxial tensile tests at different ambient temperatures were carried out to determine the mechanical properties of the adhesive bonded materials. The curing conditions affect adhesive mechanical properties. The lap shear strength decreased as the ambient temperature increased.
