The influence of substrate surface energy on the adhesion compatibility of epoxy adhesive using molecular simulation tool

The utilization of structural adhesive onto aluminium oxide (Al2O3), aluminium (Al) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) can be remarkably observed in much industrial application such as aerospace, automotive, electronics and medical. Due to the abundant prominent properties exhibited by epoxy resin, the re...
