Abstract

Adhesives, like social beings, hold things together- they are a crucial part of human society and are on the constant verge of development in various directions. Thus, this paper delves into one of those directions, studying the complex interplay and relationships of surface modified light induced thiol-ene click adhesives. Utilising several techniques such as FTIR, SEM imaging, lap shear tests, theoretical calculations and statistical tools, it was confirmed that the iCVD PAMA coated surfaces did significantly improve the adhesive strengths. Furthermore, the polysulphide with a higher SH content and a lower viscosity outperformed the other variant. The correlation between the adhesive strength and the quantity of crosslinkers yielded very interesting trends, diverging from the initial project hypothesis. The results obtained allowed for various theories to arise, which are discussed in detail.
