After preparing the required specimens (using two different adhesives and adherend thicknesses), several tests have been made in order to determine these properties and compare their values to the predictions made using analytical methods. These tests were repeated with several distinct combinations of temperatures and moisture levels so that the effect of these properties can be properly interpreted. It was observed that higher temperatures strongly increase the ductility of the adhesive but mixed with moisture this can degrade them. Moisture can increase the energy absorbed through increased plastic deformation of the adhesive and improve behaviour at low temperatures.
