Ask Dr. Dave

Can you recommend a method for bonding aluminum to aluminum for use in an application for continuous immersion in water?

Dr. Dave shares insights regarding challenges and options for adhesive applications involving water immersion.

Dave Dunn Ph.D.

February 20, 2020

All adhesives tend to lose strength on immersion in water. Water acts in two ways on a bonded assembly: It can be absorbed into the adhesive and soften it, and it can degrade the interface between the adhesive and the bonded surfaces.
