Vliv klimatických podmínek na pevnost lepených spojů MDF

This bachelor thesis deals with the influence of the climatic conditions on bonding strength of MDF. Three types of bonded joints were used for testing – MDF-MDF, MDF-oak and MDF-artificial stone. The specimens were glued together with two component polyvinyl acetate adhesive. One half of testing joints was exposed to higher temperature and humidity, the second half of testing joints was exposed to normal conditions. After conditioning the specimens were subjected shear tension test. Then it was compared strength of bonded joints between normal conditions and higher temperature and humidity conditions
