← ScienceWhich structural collapse happens when adhesives experience sustained loading?
A)Creep rupture reduces bond strength✓
B)Corrosion increases the adhesive volume
C)Swelling occurs due to water absorption
D)Vaporization of the glue lowers bonds
💡 Explanation
Creep rupture causes failure because constant stress causes gradual deformation by the mechanism of bond slip at the adhesive-adherend interface below yield strength, therefore overall bondstrength decreases rather than changes in volume with corrosion.
