New heat-resistant polytriazole adhesives: investigation of adhesion of polytriazole resins to metals
Crosslinkable polytriazole resins (CPTs) were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between azide and alkyne monomers. Adhesion properties of CPTs and an epoxy resin to different metal substrates (copper, iron and aluminium) were evaluated in terms of the tensile lap shear strength. CPTs to aluminium and iron substrates have higher adhesion strength than those to copper substrates. The effect of temperature and humidity on adhesion strength has been investigated. The resin CPT-3 has the best heat resistance among CPTs, whose retentions of adhesion strength are approximate 80% at 150 degrees C and 70% at 180 degrees C to all the substrates. CPTs have high adhesion properties at high temperature and humidity as compared with an epoxy resin.
