Creating a strong and durable bond poses a fundamental challenge in conventional bonding processes. The fused bonding process developed at the German Aerospace Centre uses reactive joining surfaces to produce reliable bonds, the result being bonded components as if produced from a single mould. In addition to maximum bonding quality, the fused bonding process promises considerable savings on production costs as well as reduced development times and easier approval of bonded structures made of fibre-reinforced plastic.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<strong>Simple and highly effective<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At the core of the new joining process is a special activation foil, which is applied to the preform as an outermost layer during the production of fibre-reinforced plastic. which is applied to the preform as an outermost layer during the production of fibre-reinforced plastic. Pre-treatment in the form of peeling off the foil does not occur until just before the execution of the joining process itself. In contrast to other methods, it is thus particularly easy to obtain a clean and reactive surface. In the event of contact with a liquid adhesive or matrix resin, a chemical cross-linking reaction occurs at the interface, during which a continuous polymer chain forms between component and adhesive. The result is a strong and durable bond with the properties of the polymer base material.[\/vc_column_text]<style type=\"text\/css\" data-type=\"the7_shortcodes-inline-css\">.shortcode-single-image-wrap.shortcode-single-image-d95fa231adc616902b12fd0db73d54c9.enable-bg-rollover .rollover i,\n.shortcode-single-image-wrap.shortcode-single-image-d95fa231adc616902b12fd0db73d54c9.enable-bg-rollover .rollover-video i {\n  background: -webkit-linear-gradient();\n  background: linear-gradient();\n}\n.shortcode-single-image-wrap.shortcode-single-image-d95fa231adc616902b12fd0db73d54c9 .rollover-icon {\n  font-size: 32px;\n  color: #ffffff;\n  min-width: 44px;\n  min-height: 44px;\n  line-height: 44px;\n  border-radius: 100px;\n  border-style: solid;\n  border-width: 0px;\n}\n.dt-icon-bg-on.shortcode-single-image-wrap.shortcode-single-image-d95fa231adc616902b12fd0db73d54c9 .rollover-icon {\n  background: rgba(255,255,255,0.3);\n  box-shadow: none;\n}\n<\/style><div class=\"shortcode-single-image-wrap shortcode-single-image-d95fa231adc616902b12fd0db73d54c9 alignnone caption-on  enable-bg-rollover dt-icon-bg-off\" style=\"margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; width:500px;\"><div class=\"shortcode-single-image\"><div class=\"fancy-media-wrap  layzr-bg\" style=\"\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"preload-me lazy-load aspect\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D&#39;http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg&#39;%20viewBox%3D&#39;0%200%20500%20265&#39;%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/leichtbau.dlr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Innobericht_G1C_v3-003-1024x543-1-500x265.png\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/leichtbau.dlr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Innobericht_G1C_v3-003-1024x543-1-500x265.png 500w, https:\/\/leichtbau.dlr.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Innobericht_G1C_v3-003-1024x543-1-1000x530.png 1000w\" loading=\"eager\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" width=\"500\" height=\"265\"  data-dt-location=\"https:\/\/leichtbau.dlr.de\/en\/innobericht_g1c_v3-003-1024x543-2\" style=\"--ratio: 500 \/ 265;\" alt=\"Mechanical characteristics: Fused bonding vs. conventional pre-treatmentvs. konventionelle Vorbehandlung\" \/><\/div><\/div><div class=\"shortcode-single-caption\">Mechanical characteristics: Fused bonding vs. conventional pre-treatment<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<strong>A solution for multiple use cases<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The process is suitable for a range of materials, including matrix resins and epoxy adhesives with low to high curing temperatures.
