ABSTRACT
Purpose:
This study aims to optimize the adhesive strength of epoxy adhesive when applied to tiles, addressing frequent issues of adhesion degradation observed in indoor interiors. The degradation often leads to costly repairs and maintenance, highlighting the need for improved adhesive formulations and application techniques.
Methods:
Employing the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodology integral to Six Sigma and utilizing MINITAB for data analysis, this research focused on critical factors like curing time, application method, and mixing ratio. The Taguchi Experimental Design within the Design of Experiments (DOE) framework was applied to determine the impact of these parameters on adhesive strength.
Results:
The analysis facilitated by Taguchi’s method led to notable improvements in adhesive workability and consistency. It identified the optimal combination of factors that significantly increase adhesive strength, evidenced by the improvement in signal-to-noise ratio and I-MR control charts.
Conclusion:
By applying a structured statistical approach through Six Sigma and the Taguchi method, the study successfully pinpointed optimal conditions for epoxy adhesive application on tiles. This contributes to quality management in the manufacturing and application processes of epoxy adhesives, ensuring enhanced durability and reliability in indoor tiling applications. The findings offer a significant methodological framework for future material optimization research.
