Fatigue dataset of hybrid non-toughened and toughened epoxy adhesives.

ABSTRACT: In this article, four different structural epoxy adhesives such as SPABOND™ 820HTA (non-toughened), SPABOND™ 840HTA (toughened) adhesives, and their two hybrid combinations are fabricated using a manual mixing method. Quasi-static tensile experiments are conducted at standardized and high strain rates using ASTM D638-22 Type II specimens to investigate the strain rate effects on the tensile properties. Tensile-tensile fatigue experiments are performed using ASTM D638-22 Type I and Type II specimens to evaluate the impact of specimen geometry and toughening on fatigue life. The digital image correlation technique is utilized to obtain full-field strain data in these experiments. Technical data analysis, plotting, smoothing, filtering, and averaging are carried out using Origin Pro^Ⓡ
