Re: Creep

Hank Knight

I think creep is a more serious issue than springback. PVA glues creep under stress. Bent laminations by their nature are under perpetual stress. I think that would be a problem with PVA glues. Epoxy and plastic resin glues don't creep so they are more suited for this application than PVA glues.
