The growth of planetesimals at the so called bouncing barrier is still not fully understood. Compositional and concomitant structural changes of protoplanetary dust induced by high temperatures in the vicinity of the young star might explain improved sticking at the mm-range. As meteorites contain primordial phases representing the material in our young solar system, they offer an insight into the mechanics of planetary formation. A fragment of the iron rich meteorite Sayh al Uhaymir was ground and subsequently heated in vacuum at temperatures up to 1400 K and adhesive forces were determined by Brazilian tests after cooling down to room temperature. We present an altered behaviour of adhesive forces in meteoritic matter upon exposure to high temperatures accompanied by a compositional and structural change, which was investigated by 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy probing the abundance of iron bearing phases.
