Cryogenic/high temperature structural adhesivesResults are described of the work performed to develop a structural adhesive system which possesses useful properties over a 20K (-423 F) to 589 K (600 F) temperature range. Adhesives systems based on polyimide, polyphenylquinoxaline polyquinoxaline, polybenzothiazole and polybenzimidazole polymers first were screened for suitability. Detailed evaluation of two polyimide adhesive sytems, Br34/FM34 and P4/A5F or P4A/A5FA, and one polyphenylquinoxaline adhesive system, PPQ II (IMW), then was performed. Property information was generated over the full temperature range for shear strength, stressed and unstressed thermal aging, thermal shock and coefficient of thermal expansion. Both polyimide adhesive systems were identified as being capable of providing structural adhesive joints for cryogenic/high temperature service.
