A comprehensive reference dedicated to pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA). Essential for the packaging, label, tape, printing, and coating industries. Covers adhesive chemistry, formulation, rheology, coating methods, failure modes, and performance testing.
This is one of the most complete handbooks in the adhesive and sealant industry. It includes detailed material science, formulation guidelines, substrate compatibility, failure analysis, and large-scale industrial applications in aerospace, automotive, construction, electronics, and packaging.
This book is concerned with adhesives and adhesive bonding for load-bearing applications. It is arranged in three main sections: fundamentals, generic uses and industry specific applications. The introductory section focuses predominantly on different types of adhesives and their mechanical and physical properties, surface assessment, design and analysis, failure and non-destructive testing. Part 2 concentrates specifically on generic uses of adhesives: stiffening, strengthening, repair, and joining of dissimilar materials and composites. The final section of the book concentrates on industry specific applications. The book will also include ISO, ASTM and BS standards with a reference to specific suppliers. It will be a major resource for all those concerned with the science and technology of adhesive bonding.
