Not sure if this helps, but IEC 60950-1 (Information Technology Equipment- Safety) has a clause entitled: 4.6.5 Adhesives for constructional purposes which specifies an accelerated aging test based on thermal and humidity cycling. It doesn't address adhesion force explicitly, but simply points to the force tests in clause 4.2 as a pass/fail criteria. -Ken A.

I can measure initial force obviously, but looking for a standardized test (ANSI IEC) – or just one you’ve found useful. I have some ideas but would like to be able to tie it to aging – hopefully accelerated aging. I can just duplicate some test found on data sheets from some adhesive suppliers but they don’t’ seem to tell the whole story.
