US12679080 - Phenolic panel and attachment/detachment system and process
A system for attaching a phenolic panel to a metal part includes a phenolic laminate panel having (i) a phenolic panel, (ii) a ferromagnetic susceptor bonded at an inner side of the phenolic panel via higher melting point adhesive and (iii) a non-magnetic shield having an outer side bonded at an inner side of the ferromagnetic susceptor via higher melting point adhesive. A lower melting point adhesive is applied at an inner side of the non-magnetic shield opposite from the outer side of the non-magnetic shield. With the phenolic laminate panel disposed at a metal part, an electromagnetic field is generated at the phenolic laminate panel to heat the phenolic laminate panel to a temperature greater than the melting point of the lower melting point adhesive and less than the melting point of the higher melting point adhesive to bond the phenolic laminate panel to the metal part.
