To be accurate, you should use EXACTLY the same amount of glue with each bonding agent. Having been a plastic modeler for 60 years, and having been using cyanoacrylate glue since it's introduction as Eastman 910 in the very late 1960's, I could have told you, baking soda (or sodium carbonate, "washing soda") would be BY FAR the superior bonding agent to ANY material bond. The Eastman Chemicals "poop sheet" on Eastman 910 (there are and entire SERIES of Eastman "900" "super-glues") plainly states that alkaline agents promote the strongest bonds. The first was made to bond the wing spars of B-52's in place! Yes, the wings of B-52's are GLUED-ON! My late Daddy machined the two plates of the wing attachments from high grade aluminum. They form a hinge that allows the wing to move over 12 feet vertically from at rest to full load in flight.

[@charlescollier7217]

Interesting experiments, but there were a few things that make the results difficult to interpret. Most have to do with standardization within each experiemental condition. For example, the actual amount of glue applied and the gapping between surfaces. The most glaring though, was the inconsistent placement of wood and zip ties on the strength test. A force applied increases inproportion to the distance from the fulcrum. In effect, the further away from the fulcrum you placed the zip ties, the less measured force it would take to break the joint. I would recommend repeating these experiements, but standardizing everything.

[@johniwanaga3517]

Just from my experience, it seems the baking soda is great for hard white plastic repairs. For more flexible plastic, use the Styrofoam. For black plastic, use the charcoal, but it works better when finely powdered like cigarette ash. Not sure if cement would be the best for bonding ceramic and stone, but it wouldn't surprise me. Super glue is acrilate that undergoes polymerization in the presence of water. I have seen acrylics (plexiglass) melted with acetone , which makes a hellava glue in its own right, but I have yet to see powdered acrylic and superglue done. Please make that video experiment.

you don't need any powder, just use a pencil to color black the surface then use couple of drop. that's it you are done. you need to use file on very smooth surface as you can not draw from pencil on smooth surface such as glass, use little sanding or filing then rub pencil then stick.

[@hirarajvasarnikar]

So you powdered acrylic shit and than tried

[@votingcitizen]

You should have measured out the amount of additive/accelerant to ensure a fair comparison. On the plastic-to-plastic, you needed to make the distance from the vise jaws to the joint the same for all tests, as well as the distance from the joint to the pulling force. variations of those lengths will have a significant effect on the force applied.

The experiment has three problems: 1.- Time between the glue and the experiment. For example: cement has a time to toughen. If you last 24 jours between the glue and the experiment it is better 2.- You have to take the same distance between the glue and the site of the force, as you are doing an experiment of momentum force this is very different if you are 5 cm or 6 cm from the glue 3.- The distance of the two pieces of material must be the same. Is diffenrent if it brokes in the connection of materials or if it brokes in teh middle of the glue And this experiment only is at flexion.... if you want to know the glue power you have to do it at longitudinal force.

I read in a similar video that the strongest combination for super glue is baking soda. Apparently this combination was so strong, it was used for holding together parts of the wing on old war planes. When you mix super glue and baking soda, it accelerates the curing process. Chemically, the bicarbonate molecules in baking soda react with cyanoacrylate to create a reactive ion that more easily bonds with other cyanoacrylate molecules...so yes, your experiment result was accurate👍

*Since baking soda is in powder form, the particles cannot hold together and form bonds. Naturally, since the glued carbonate is hard, it breaks after a certain resistance is applied. It may be a good idea to add glass fiber powder or carbon fiber powder to the baking soda to create a bond between the baking soda particles and provide strength.💡*

Never heard of this before, but it should work! I have used flox (chopped cotton microfibers) to add more strength to bondings, with excellent results.

Thanks for the video. I like styrofoam since it's not a powder, it can be controlled better. However, if you need strength, Baking Soda is best for most applications. Cement seems to good for all applications. However it's a coarse powder. Harder to sand down smooth. Of course you could be more scientific by carefully marking and applying your force at specific points. I noticed there was some variability in where you applied the load. I don't think it would change the relative rankings.

[@GausDIY]

Hey! great work, the idea is interesting, I just think you need a little break of about 24 hours before applying force to make the most of the capacity of each glue.

[@Proflaxis]

I think these trials/results by Gaus are interesting but there are several potential variables that need more attention IMHO 1) Interspacing Gap variability 2) Amount of bonding agent/resin applied 3) Amount of Superglue applied 4) Drying time 5) distance of applied force from the joint However that said, I didn’t realize that some of these compounds could be used the way they were. I mean you could choose iron filings for one. But the real variability might be coming from just the superglue itself. So there should be a fifth one with just the superglue and nothing else. Anyway interesting trials 👏

[@veredan2009]

Thank you for this. This is a bit helpful. However, it would be more accurate if you anchor the meter same exact point for all materials. Because even a slight difference in the anchoring of the weighing scale hook along the length of the pieces can spell a big difference (e.g. the closer to the glued joint, the harder it is to break, the farther from the joint, the easier it is to break; this is the principle of the lever). Another minor point is the amount of material used for the joints. It should be same weight in grams for all materials being compared, and exact same amount of super glue. Because for example, if you put a little bit more cement than baking soda, then obviously there will be a strength difference; same with amount of super glue.

Crabby, no good but constructive criticism is sometimes needed. And these tests have some shortcomings that need to be pointed out as the results are not reliable, when you place your leverage point (his zip tie)just anywhere you like and them try to list the results as comparable. They are not...the ties would need to be the same distance from the joint to be valid. Even then, his hand and the angle he pulls against the force gauge will be an issue also. So our guy does good tests...he just needs to adjust some of his techniques and he will have a better channel. Nothing wrong with helping people improve their videos.

The tests are not accurate in multiple ways: 1- The Grain size of charcoal does not match with the cement & baking soda! 2- The Gaps between the different test objects do not match (they are different)! 3- The distances of the applied forces to the glued joints are different!

[@lovetrump1088]

Grain size is not that critical, he is trying to compare the different materials, so comparing Baking Soda to Cement is fine...they are two commonly available substances we can all access, and use. Charcoal...maybe not as it is variable sized and lumpy here otherwise it would be ok to test it. Of course Styrofoam is the same...as a common substance that everyone can get and many are trying/claiming to use to glue things. So his testing is valid and useful, except as you point out in item 3 his force measurements are not very accurate. Otherwise, his ideas of testing these substances is useful as there are lots of videos claiming the strength of one versus the others which is what people want to know - which is best. Looks like Baking Soda in this one.

Fiberglass can be a good option, fiberglass sheets are normally used to repair rigid suitcases or bumper plastics with EPOXY, and I think that with cyanoacrylate it could work very well, the difference is the price of cyanoacrylate if you have to repair very large surfaces, but for small repairs I think it can be better than epoxy. Yes, it melts, but the glass is still present at a molecular level and after drying it acquires its maximum resistance.

This is OK for getting a general impression, but for a proper analysis of material strength and bonding ability, you'd need to do separate shear test and tension tests that eliminated factors of inconsistency. A tension test being two surfaces glued end-to-end and pull apart at 90 degrees from the glue plane. Shear is glueing two surfaces in an overlap manner and pulling it apart along the same plane as the bonded surface.

Will backing soda and super glue work this good on aluminium And generally on metals?

[@GausDIY]

I haven't tried it on aluminum, but if you want the glue and baking soda to stick better to the aluminum surface, you have to roughen the aluminum surface.

Which glue or bond you have use to fix the joint

[@giovannino1962]

Molto interessante, come ogni altra puntata che hai proposto. Anch'io sto diventando un appassionato della supercolla. Ieri sera ho stratificato dei fogliolini di carta igienica, che dare spessore ad un incastro che non era più stabile. Ottimo risultato. Sono anni che uso la supercolla, ma finché non ho visto i tuoi video, in modo del tutto sbagliato. Grazie e Buon Natale.

Do each of them has given ample time to fully cure b4 the test is perform?

[@alxmrtnz]

Additional variables in the first test could be the differences in leverage created by the distance of the hook pulling on the nail from the point of contact with the wood and the differences in the amount of bonding agent and glue. The same applies to all of your tests, remove these factors as variables and your tests could be more accurate.

Thank you so much for your feedback on my content.

[@seanparsons8987]

Good effort. Results can be skewed by so many factors mentioned in the other comments as to question the results - which i dont understand. Which is top 1, top 2, etc?

Graciasss😊

[@curi1080]

very informative, thank you

[@GausDIY]

Glad it was helpful!

[@RealStuff001]

Plesae try again by placing the spring balance a measured fixed distance from the repair. Lever effect has a massive effect on the reading.

Someone said ebay

[@fosfororojo2065]

Probé con plástico roto. El bicarbonato se comporta muy bien. Esperar más tiempo para mejorar la reacción y el endurecimiento
