Bonding Failure Diagnostic — Is Low Surface Energy the Problem?

Three quick questions. If your adhesive keeps failing on a plastic substrate, low surface energy (LSE) is the most common root cause.

Diagnostic Questions

1. What are you bonding to?

Polypropylene or polyethylene Metal, wood, glass or fabric Not sure / mixed materials

2. When does the bond usually fail?

Weeks later, after flexing or heat exposure Immediately, during assembly It hasn’t failed — I’m just planning ahead

3. Have you tested surface treatment (corona, flame or plasma)?

No, not yet Yes, and it still fails
