Effect of organosilicate application on thermo-pressure bonding of metals and composites with thermoplastic matrix

Abstract

The paper deals with application of organosilicate sol-gel to improve the adhesion of overlapped joints of metallic non-ferrous alloy thin sheets and continuous fibre reinforced composites by heat and pressure. The organosilicate layer showed a significant increase in adhesion of EN AW 6082 T6 and AZ91 alloys to glass fibre reinforced polypropylene matrix composite.
