Abstract: | Results of infrared drying of an acrylic microsphere adhesive coating are presented. The effect of IR drying on adhesive coating was analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The adhesion strength was tested by peel adhesion measurement. Drying was experimentally carried out on materials dried to the same moisture extent at different operating conditions. The power of IR heating source, time of drying, and distance between adhesive coating and heating source were varied. The developed phenomenological model was compared with existing empirical models. |
