ASTM D897 – Standard Test Method for Tensile Properties of Adhesive Bonds

 

ASTM D897 Tensile Strength Test Equipment for Metal to Metal Adhesive Bonds

This test method covers the determination of the comparative tensile properties of the adhesive bonds of metal to metal when tested on standard

shape specimens and under defined conditions of pretreatment, temperature, and testing machine speed.

Significance and Use

This test method is primarily comparative. However, it does have application as a discriminator in determining variations in adherend surface preparation

parameters and adhesive environmental durability.

The test method has found applications in controlling surface preparations, primer, and adhesive systems for determining strength properties of tested systems.
