Process for joining two solid bodies and the resulting structural element

摘要

Bonding smooth surfaces of 2 solids together using organo-silicon compound comprises providing both surfaces with a mono-molecular film of a bis(trialkoxysilyl)alkyldi- to hexa-sulfane (I) and bringing the surfaces together. Bonding the smooth surface of 2 solids together using organo-silicon compounds comprises providing both surfaces with a mono-molecular film of a bis(trialkoxysilyl)alkyl di- to hexa-sulfane of formula (I) and bringing the surfaces together. Sy((CH2)xSi(OR)3)2 (I) R = methyl, ethyl or propyl x = 1 - 4 y = 2 - 6 An Independent claim is also included for a composite structure comprising 2 solids bonded in this way.
