Abstract
A method for strengthening metal structure, including steps: i) mixing two-component epoxy resin composition; ii) applying composition to metal structure surface, or onto strengthening element, or both; iii) contacting applied epoxy resin composition with strengthening element surface and/or metal structure surface wherein composition forms interlayer between metal structure and strengthening element, and iv) curing epoxy resin composition at 100° C. or below; wherein two-component epoxy resin composition contains: first component between 10-50 wt.-% of at least one epoxy resin contains on average more than one epoxy group per molecule; second component between 5-30 wt.-% of hardener for epoxy resins; between 3-25 wt.-% of at least one impact strength modifier in one or both components; between 15-80 wt.-% of at least one filler in one or both components; and wherein two-component epoxy resin composition exhibits after curing Elastic Modulus at least 2500 MPa, and Impact Peel Strength at least 15 N/mm.
