General note Adhesives play a crucial role across various industries and applications due to their<br/>ability to bond materials together. They are used in numerous ways, ranging from<br/>everyday household applications to industrial and specialized fields. Strength is the most<br/>critical factor to analyze before using the adhesive. Various techniques have already been<br/>developed and many are being developed to predict and improve the strength of adhesive.<br/>The addition of cork powder to the structural adhesives could improve the strength of<br/>adhesive joints through mechanical interlocking between the cork cells and the molecules<br/>of adhesive. However, even with the nanofiller reinforcement, the strength of adhesive<br/>joints is significantly affected by environmental parameters like temperature and<br/>humidity. The present study investigated the effect of hydrothermal aging on the strength<br/>characteristics of cork powder-reinforced adhesive samples. Reinforced adhesive samples<br/>were investigated under two different humidity levels of 80% and 100% RH. The cork<br/>powder will be added in concentration of 0.25wt.%, 0.5wt.%, 0.75wt.% and 1wt.% to<br/>study the reinforcing effects. The result shows that the saturated mass increased with<br/>increased in relative humidity that is approximately 0.4% and 0.9% for 80% and 100%<br/>RH respectively. The findings show that the ultimate tensile strength is reduced by the<br/>addition of cork powder as well as enhancing humidity. Furthermore, the addition of cork<br/>powder makes the sample more brittle, so failure strain and tensile toughness undergo<br/>decrement. The above finding indicated that hot-wet environment has a negative<br/>influence on strength performance of cork powder reinforced adhesive. In future the same<br/>study can be performed to know the strength of SLJ and DLJ to know its effect on joints.
