This standard specifies test methods for evaluating the long-term reliability of adhesives under specific conditions. Its core focus is to determine the creep performance of metal-to-metal bonded joints under sustained tensile shear loading, which refers to the phenomenon of deformation over time in adhesive joints under constant stress and at a specified temperature (applicable up to 250°C). According to this method, a tensile testing machine must be equipped with appropriate fixtures to apply a constant static load, typically in conjunction with an extensometer capable of accurately measuring minute deformations over extended periods. This test is crucial for assessing the durability of adhesives in engineering structures.
