Practical Aspects of Adhesives and Adhesion

Investigating all aspects of adhesion, from theories, definitions, classification, and historical background, to formulations, surface preparation, and advanced techniques, this resource provides a practical perspective on the highly interdisciplinary field of adhesives. Drawing from chemistry, mechanics, and surface science, the authorpresents readers with invaluable information about adhesion, from the initial selection of a base polymer to the achievement of enhanced bonding.  He provides an array of case studies and examples culled from his 30 years of experience, to provide a thorough and unparalleled understanding of both current and emerging techniques.
