Summary

This report presents the results of the experimentation comparing the creep-rupture response of tape-bonded and liquid-adhesive-bonded seam specimens as a function of peel load. These results may be used as a basic reference point against which the results of future creep-rupture experiments on EPDM seam specimens may be compared. Seam specimens were prepared using two tape sytems and one liquid adhesive. The results clearly indicate that, in general, the tape-bonded specimens had times-to-failure that were comparable to, or were greater than, those of the liquid-adhesive-bonded specimens.
