Research abstract

A PROCESS FOR SURFACE TREATING NON-FERROUS STRUCTURAL METALS SUCH AS ALUMINUM AND TITANIUM IS PROPOSED WHICH CAN DRAMATICALLY SIMPLIFY AND IMPROVE THE PROCESS OF ADHESIVE BONDING AND CORROSION PROTECTION. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH EXPLORES THE FEASIBILITY OF USING NON-AQUEOUS SURFACE ETCHING TECHNIQUES AND REACTIVE PRIMER COATINGS TO YIELD TIGHT, STABLE OXIDE LAYERS SUITABLE FOR STRONG CHEMICAL BONDING TO COMMERCIAL ADHESIVES AND COATINGS. THE ABILITY TO FORM STRONG, DURABLE ADHESIVE BONDS TO TYPICAL AIRCRAFT ALLOYS WITHOUT THE NEED FOR CORROSIVE, TOXIC CHEMICAL ETCHANTS, SOPHISTICATED EQUIPMENT, OR LONG HIGH-TEMPERATURE DRYING PROCEDURES WOULD REPRESENT A SIGNIFICANT ADVANCEMENT IN ADHESION TECHNOLOGY.
