For an effective application of polymers, it is essential to have good adhesion behaviour to ensure good mechanical properties and durable components. Unfortunately, in general terms, polymers are characterized by high chemical inertness, which leads to very low surface energy values and, consequently, poor adhesive properties; this is particularly true for polyolefins. In this study, the effects of low pressure plasma treatment on surface roughness of polyethylene and polypropylene samples and on shear properties of adhesive bonded joints based on these substrates have been investigated. In particular, the optimization of three plasma process parameters, exposure time, voltage and working gas, were studied performing roughness measurement, contact angle evaluation and lap-shear tests. The experimental results show that the optimized plasma process may remarkably change the surface morphology, increasing wettability properties of the surfaces and shear strength of the bonded joints. These good properties remain almost unchanged even after some days of storage in the laboratory.

The objective of this study is to investigate the surface roughness that effect the capability of adhesive with adding aluminium powder and 63/37 Sn-Pb soft solder powder to the epoxy to increase the mechanical strength of joints. The adhesive strength of the joints was determined by utilizing the single-lap shear test. As seen from the experiments, the surface roughness has an important effect on the strength of adhesive bonded joints. Experimental results show that joints prepared by adhesive which was modified, adding in the amount of 5 wt% 63/37 Sn-Pb powder have more mechanical strength than joints compared to one which is prepared by adding aluminium powder with different ratios as 5, 25,50 wt%.
