TL;DR
This study shows how laser-created surface patterns on aluminum alloy joints can significantly increase their shear strength.
Contribution
The paper introduces a method to enhance shear resistance in aluminum alloy joints using laser-engraved micropatterns.
Findings
Parallel wavy micropatterns show maximum shear strength at a 0.5 mm laser processing distance.
Cross-wave micropatterns achieve peak shear strength at a 0.75 mm laser processing distance.
Surface micropatterns improve hydrophilicity and mechanical interlocking with adhesive.
Abstract
To improve the shear strength of the 2A12 aluminum alloy adhesive-bonded joint, two kinds of surface micropatterns, parallel and cross waves, were constructed on the surface of aluminum alloy by a laser engraving machine. The shear strength of two different surface micropatterns at different laser processing distances was investigated. The results show that the surface of the aluminum alloy with a surface micropattern shows excellent hydrophilicity, which is beneficial to forming a mechanical interlock between the adhesive and aluminum alloy. The shear strength of the bonded joint decreases with the increase in laser processing distances for the parallel wavy micropattern. When the laser processing distance is 0.5 mm, the shear strength reaches a maximum of 14.04 MPa. For the cross-wave micropattern, the shear strength of the bonded joint increases first and then decreases with the…
