    Elastic Modulus
AI Thread Summary
The elastic modulus of Crazy Glue is reported to be 1.2 GPa, according to Helbawi's study on subsurface damage in bonded specimens. This value may seem lower than expected for a cured adhesive, prompting surprise among participants. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding material properties in adhesive applications. Overall, the findings contribute to a better understanding of the stiffness characteristics of Crazy Glue. This information is valuable for those working with adhesives in mechanical contexts.

Hi..
Anybody knows the Elastic modulus of crazy glue?
Thanks
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Helbawi's "Difference in subsurface damage in indented specimens with and without bonding layer," Int J Mech Sci 43 1107-1121 (2001) gives the value to be 1.2 GPa, which seems about right.
 
Huh. I would have thought a cured adhesive would be a lot more stiff than that. Ya learn something new every day.
 
1.2 GPa? Thanks for your information.
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
