Description: Adhesives have been used for thousands of years, though the last century has seen the development of a vast array of synthetic ones in addition to those naturally occurring. It is difficult to imagine a product—in the home, in industry, in transportation, or anywhere else for that matter—that does not use adhesives or sealants in some way. The subject is of interest to diverse scientific disciplines and important in a wide range of technologies, so this handbook covers the background science (physics, chemistry and materials science), the engineering aspects, and industry-specific applications. The ten sections cover the entire range of adhesion-related subjects, including the theory of adhesion, surface treatments, adhesive and sealant materials, testing of adhesive properties, joint design, durability, manufacture.
Subject: adhesives; durability; joint design; manufacture; paints; quality control; sealants; surface treatments; using adhesives in production; welding
