To address this issue, we added a hydrogen-containing silicone adhesion promoter to an addition-curing silicone adhesive. We also introduced functional groups on the aluminum and glass adherends through air plasma (AP) surface treatment. These modifications were made to improve the interface between the adhesive and the adherend. We also added hydrophobic fumed silica to the adhesive formulation to enhance its overall bond strength and toughness. The single lap-shear tests were carried out to study the lap-shear strength (LSS) of the adhesively bonded joints. It was shown that the presence of the adhesion promoter on AP-treated adherends results in a minimum increase of 196 % in LSS. It was observed that the adhesion promoter has a plasticizing effect in the absence of AP treatment, resulting in poor mechanical strength of the joints. Fumed silica has been shown to significantly impact the LSS of aluminum and glass adherends, increasing it by a factor of 3 and 4, respectively, at the concentration of 5 phr.

Aside from decreasing reactivity, excessive amounts of free phenol will render PRF resins hazardous. In addition, using hardeners containing significant amounts of paraformaldehyde might result in high formaldehyde emissions if the resin and hardener do not react completely during curing. Therefore, this research aims to reduce the possibility of high levels of free phenol and formaldehyde in PRF resins by synthesizing the resins with various condensation times and using an oxazolidine hardener to replace paraformaldehyde. PRF resins' properties and adhesion performance with various condensation times were evaluated. The results showed that PRF resins' viscosity and solids content increased when the condensation time increased, whereas their gelation time reduced. PRF resins with a longer condensation time had a higher proportion of methylene linkage and greater reactivity, as evidenced by lower apparent activation energy during curing. Furthermore, increasing the condensation time of PRF resins enhanced the adhesion strength of glue-laminated timber products bonded with these resins.

This work focuses on the investigation and the modeling of the lifespan, the degradation in the face of thermal stresses, particularly those generated by a laser, and of the ageing of a photocrosslinkable adhesive, PC373HA. The thermal characterization is performed using ThermoGravimetric Analysis and allows for the development, the validation and the comparison of three models based on Arrhenius' law to estimate the lifetime of adhesives as a function of temperature. A temperature of 150 °C is identified as a threshold to ensure limited degradation over the 15 h requested for laser operation endurances. The Ozawa-Flynn-Wall model and the Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose model correctly reproduce PC373HA's thermal behavior submitted to different thermal scenarii (temperatures, heating rates …). Both show that the higher the temperature, the faster the degradation process, approximately 10 min at 220 °C and 100 min at 180 °C, much less than the required 15 h. Besides, in the event of an incident with the laser, if the temperature exceeds 200 °C for more than 10 min or 180 °C for more than 100 min, corrective action should be taken, and the adhesive should be replaced.
