Abstract: | The paper presents the results of Dynamic-Mechanical Thermal Analysis (DMTA) for a selected methacrylate adhesive at the frequency range from 1 to 50?Hz and the heating rate of 1 and 3?°C/min, in the range from –70?°C to 180?°C. On the basis of the test results, the glass transition temperature was evaluated for three calculation methods. Master curves were also designated for three different reference temperatures: –20, +20 and +60?°C. Master curves were calculated using shift factors aT - calculated by numerical method. |
