The strength and fracture properties of adhesive bonded joints are in?uenced by several factors. One of these parameters is the thickness of the adhesive layer. In this study, the effect of adhesive film stacking is studied in detail. The study is performed using an epoxy-based aerospace-grade adhesive film FM-300-2K (Cytec).
