Abstract
In this paper, a theoretical model for degradation of anisotropically conductive adhesive (ACA) joints has been developed. The model takes i nto account oxide growth of bonding surfaces and interfacial crack gro wth. The calculations based on the model show that oxidation causes in crease in the electrical resistance but does not cause catastrophic fa ilure. The model can to some extent explain the experimental results.
