ASTM D1002

ASTM D1002 is a standard test method used to measure the bond strength of adhesives, specifically how well they hold materials together. In this test, two pieces of material are bonded with an adhesive and then pulled apart until the bond fails. This helps manufacturers understand how strong the adhesive is under stress. The results can inform decisions about which adhesives to use in various applications, ensuring that products meet safety and performance standards. Essentially, it’s a way to ensure that products will stay together as intended in real-world conditions.
