Durability and Surface Analytical Studies of Adhesive Bonding to Wood

Abstract
The effects of aging on adhesively bonded wood joints were examined using non-extracted, water-extracted and solvent-extracted wood. Surface analysis by XPS and SIMS were used to examine the various wood surfaces. The level of surface extractives is seen to be a major influence on the quality of the joints, both in terms of durability and strength.
