Title: Acrylic mechanical bond tests

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10186728· OSTI ID:10186728

The tensile strength of bonded acrylic is tested as a function of bond joint thickness. 0.125 in. thick bond joints were found to posses the maximum strength while the acceptable range of joints varied from 0.063 in. to almost 0.25 in. Such joints are used in the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory.
