This paper reports a study on the effect of silica nanoparticles on the adhesion strength of steel-glass/epoxy composite joints bonded with two-part structural acrylic adhesives. The introduction of nano-silica in the two-part acrylic adhesive led to a remarkable enhancement in the shear and tensile strength of the composite joints. The shear and tensile strengths of the adhesive joints increased with addition of the filler content up to 1.5wt%, after which decreased with addition of more filler content. Also, addition of nanoparticles caused a reduction in the peel strength of the joints. Differential scanning calorimeter analysis revealed that T-g values of the adhesives rose with increasing the nanofiller content. The equilibrium water contact angle was decreased for adhesives containing nanoparticles. Scanning electron microscope micrographs revealed that addition of nanoparticles altered the fracture morphology from smooth to rough fracture surfaces.
