Abstract

ABSTRACT: The effective mechanical properties of a polyurethane adhesive (oligoetherdiol, ‐triol, MDI) in gold joints (bond line thickness, dP = 35–550 µm) are studied in the linear deformation range by dynamic mechanical analysis in shear mode. These properties depend on dP : thin ones possess a higher dynamic glass transition temperature and show a narrower glass transition than the thick ones. The storage modulus rises with decreasing dP for the rubbery plateau. The results attest mechanical interphases in the polyurethane with increased crosslink density and reduced cooperative mobility than in bulk. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.
