Adhesive systems hve importnt function in the interfce etween two min mterils, such s ruer lend nd steel reinforcement mteril. There re mny types of dhesive systems (e.g. dhesive systems mixed into ruer lends, spry ppliction dhesive systems nd two components dhesive systems), the effectivity of which is influenced y mny fctors. Effectivity of dhesive systems cn e defined y strength of joint, which is expressed s force (N) on the surfce of the joint (mm 2 ). The other fctors, tht ffect effectivity of dhesive systems re: composition of ruer lend, type of reinforcing mteril nd surfce tretment of reinforcing mteril. The grdul development of reinforcing mterils leds to development nd innovtion of the dhesive systems. Adhesive systems hve ppliction in mny sectors of industry, where there is requirement to ensure onding of ruer lends nd reinforcing mterils, such s steel, fiers or textile.

The second highest vlue of mximum force nd dhesive strength ws represented y the smple 5, which ws prepred y phosphting with following ppliction of commonly 7
used doule dhesive system. These two smples present the commonly used process in industry. In contrst, the miniml vlues of mesured chrcteristics were seen for Smple 1, which ws only degresed in KOH. Adhesive strength of Smple 1 hd only mechnicl chrcter. Mechnicl chrcter of dhesive strength is sed on mechnicl interlocking. From results of dhesion test, it cn e concluded, tht surfce tretment cn influence the vlue of dhesive strength nd it ws confirmed y the results of dhesive strength for smple 2 nd 3. Smple 2 nd 3 hd higher vlues of dhesive strength thn Smple 1. Incresing of dhesive strength my e cused y greter mount of pores nd cvities fter surfce tretment, ecuse there is the increse in mount of mechnicl interlocking. Influence of surfce tretment (sndlsting, phosphting) ws reflected in Smples with new dhesive systems sed on Co(II) nd Cu(II) sulphides. In comprison with the other smples with Cu(II) sulphide cot, the highest vlue of dhesive strength ws reched y smple 7. The smple 6 hd the highest vlue of dhesive strength in comprison with the other smples with Co(II) sulphide cot. Before preprtion of new dhesive system, surfces of smples 6 nd 7 were treted with sndlsting. The mutul comprison of the smples with new dhesive systems reveled the lowest vlues of dhesive strength in reltion to smple 9 (phosphting with following preprtion of Cu(II) sulphide cot)s well s smple 10, which is sed on Co(II) sulphide cot (degresing in KOH solution, etching in HCl, with following preprtion of Co(II) sulphide cot).

Grphicl representtion of dhesion strength (N.mm 2 ) Conclusion Results of EXD nlysis hve confirmed the presence of Co, Cu nd S elements contined in Co(II) sulphide cot nd Cu(II) sulphide cot. SEM microstructurl nlysis ws used for mesurement of thickness of ll dhesive systems nd structure of dhesive systems. According to the otined results of dhesion test, it cn e concluded tht mximum force nd thus mximum dhesive strength were reveled in the cse of the Smple 4, which ws prepred y sndlsting with following ppliction of commonly used doule dhesive system. The second highest vlue of mximum force nd dhesive strength ws seen for smple 5, which ws prepred y phosphting with following ppliction of commonly used doule dhesive system. From the Smples with new dhesive systems, Smple 7 with dhesive system sed on Cu(II) sulphide cot exhiited the highest vlue of dhesive strength. New dhesive systems sed on Co(II) nd Cu(II) sulphide cots reched lower vlues thn doule dhesive system, which is commonly used in industry. Bsed on the otined results nd following nlysis, it cn e summrised tht the surfce tretment hd influence on dhesive strength. Surfce tretment hd lso influence on dhesive strength of ll dhesive systems.
