  Comparative Thermal Stability of Structural Acrylic and Polyurethane Adhesives under High Heating Rate Conditions

  By Ganesan S., Sivamurgan P., Sravanth Chandaka, Jayavelu S., Akkewar Sathwik

  Abstract: This study examines the thermal stability and degradation characteristics of structural acrylic and polyurethane adhesives through Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) at an elevated heating rate of 15 °C/min. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of rapid thermal excitation on the volatile loss of adhesives, their curing behaviour, and thermal decomposition profiles elements that are essential in high-speed manufacturing and thermally challenging settings. The findings indicated that …
