Composite-metal and metal-metal joining are very crucial in such structures. Adhesive bonding is commonly used for this purpose. Since such structures are exposed to varying temperatures and dynamic loads, it is essential to investigate the response of such joints under thermomechanical loading. Though various studies have been reported in the literature to assess the thermomechanical properties of composites, adhesives, and their joints, the effect of the surface treatment of metals and composites on the improvement in the thermomechanical behavior of the joints has not been reported. The metal and composite surfaces were modified using chemical etching techniques. The interaction between adhesives and adherends was studied using the DTMA technique in compression mode. Anodizing treatment on aluminum alloys improved the stiffness properties of metallic joints to 36% and decreased the damping to 23%, while chemical treatment on composite and metal adherends increased the stiffness of composite-metal joints to 34% and reduced the energy dissipation to 20%.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/polym15020435","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,16]],"date-time":"2023-01-16T04:06:47Z","timestamp":1673842007000},"page":"435","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Effect of Surface Treatment on Stiffness and Damping Behavior of Metal-Metal and Composite-Metal Adhesive Joints"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8782-7067","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adeela","family":"Nasreen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for Composite Materials, School of Engineering and Technology, National Textile University, Faisalabad 37610, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Muhammad Kashif","family":"Bangash","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for Composite Materials, School of Engineering and Technology, National Textile University, Faisalabad 37610, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8612-6760","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Khubab","family":"Shaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for Composite Materials, School of Engineering and Technology, National Textile University, Faisalabad 37610, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0456-1369","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yasir","family":"Nawab","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for Composite Materials, School of Engineering and Technology, National Textile University, Faisalabad 37610, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1638","DOI":"10.1021\/acsapm.1c00056","article-title":"Superstrong Adhesive of Isocyanate-Free Polyurea with a Branched Structure","volume":"3","author":"Yang","year":"2021","journal-title":"ACS Appl.
