The mechanical behaviour of SentryGlas® ionomer and TSSA silicon bulk materials at different temperatures and strain rates under uniaxial tensile stress state

An innovative type of connections for glass components, called laminated connections, has been developed in the last years. Two materials have been used for laminated connections: the transparent ionomer SentryGlas® (SG) from Kuraray (former Dupont) and the Transparent Structural Silicon Adhesive (TSSA) from Dow Corning. In this paper, the...
