This article presents the surface morphology effect of silicon carbide (SiC) particles on the polyurethane binder’s structure formation in a dispersed-filled composite. The difference in the morphology and surface relief of filler particles was ensured by the implementation of plasma chemical modification. As a result of this modification, the filler consisted of core-shell particles characterized by a SiC core and a carbon shell (SiC@C), as well as a carbon shell decorated with silicon nanoparticles (SiC@C/SiNP) or nanos (SiC@C/SiNW). The study of the relaxation properties of polyurethane composites has shown that the strongest limiting effect on the molecular mobility of boundary layer’s chain segments is exerted by a highly developed surface with a complex relief of SiC@C/SiNP and SiC@C/SiNW particles. An empirical method was proposed to find the polymer fractions spent on the formation of the boundary, transition and bulk layers of the polymer matrix in the composite. It was shown that the morphology of the filler particles’ surface does not affect the dependence of the boundary layer thickness on the filler’s volume fraction. However, with an increase in the degree of surface development, the boundary layer thickness decreases.

The article considers the strength of adhesive joints of specimens made of OT-4 titanium alloys, the surface of which has been treated with laser radiation. The paper presents the results of the dependence of the macro- and microgeometry of the obtained surface, chemical composition, wetting angle and adhesion strength of adhesive joints under shear on laser processing modes. The purpose of this work is to determine the optimal parameters of laser processing for obtaining high strength adhesive joints. The results obtained can be used for gluing spacecraft structural elements. The studies were carried out on the adhesive pair «Titan – Titan». Depending on the processing mode, characteristic surface textures were identified, which were combined into groups «B», «K» and «C». High-energy modes of laser surface treatment of samples before gluing lead to a significant increase in the strength characteristics of the adhesive joint (up to 70 %) due to an increase in the area of the gluing surface and mechanical locking of the adhesive in the microrelief of the texture of the samples. In addition, the use of this method, in comparison with mechanical and chemical methods, significantly increases the productivity of surface treatment.
