- Abstract
In laminates, the interlamination strength or peel strength between different layers is a critical parameter that determines suitability for fabrication of inflatable structure and usage life. Polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) film, available as Tedlar® from Dupont, being slightly inert in nature is not easily adherable with commonly available adhesives. The effects of surface treatment using sodium etch and corona treatment on lamination strength of PVF film and polyester (PET) film has been studied. Combinations of corona treatment on single and both films with two component solvent based polyurethane adhesives were tried. The results with sodium etch are not uniform whereas corona treatment has been found to significantly improve the adhesion between PVF and PET film.
