Process for promoting the adhesion of epoxy bonded fiber reinforced plastics

摘要

Articles manufactured by bonding two or more shaped fiber reinforced polymeric substrates together can be made by an improved process comprising: applying a self-crosslinking acrylic polymer latex primer to the bonding surface of each of said substrates and allowing said primer to dry, applying an epxoxy adhesive, in an amount sufficient to effect adhesion, to the bonding surfaces thus primed, and contacting the bonding surfaces thus primed and epoxied with one another, under conditions sufficient to cure the epoxy, to achieve bonding.
