Tomić, Nataša Z. (author), Saleh, M. (author), Saeedifar, M. (author), Marinković, Aleksandar (author), Teixeira De Freitas, S. (author)The aim of this paper is to study the self-healing capability of fractured Al joints bonded with novel eco-epoxide adhesives synthesized from a bio-renewable raw material (tannic acid – TA). Two synthesized eco-epoxy components based on TA, (A) glycidyl ether and (B) glycidyl phosphate ester of TA, were used as a replacement for the toxic epoxy...journal article 2021

Tomić, Nataša Z. (author), Saeedifar, M. (author), Saleh, M. (author), Marinković, Aleksandar (author), Zarouchas, D. (author), Teixeira De Freitas, S. (author)The aim of this research was to investigate the self-healing potential of damaged Al joints when bonded using novel eco-epoxide adhesives derived from tannic acid (TA). Two eco-epoxy components based on TA, (A) glycidyl ether and (B) glycidyl phosphate ester of TA, were produced. The effect of the eco-epoxy components on the self-healing...journal article 2022

Farle, A.M. (author), Krishnasamy, J. (author), Turteltaub, S.R. (author), Kwakernaak, C. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Sloof, W.G. (author)A wedge loaded testing methodology to determine the fracture energy and strength of (semi-) brittle (metallo-)ceramics is presented. The methodology combines a tailored specimen geometry and a comprehensive finite element analysis based on cohesive zone modelling. The use of a simulation-based approach to extract both fracture strength and...journal article 2018
