In Adhesive Bonding in Five Steps: Achieving Safe and High Quality Bonds,accomplished chemist Dr.Jürgen Klingendeliversa thorough and practical overviewof the adhesive concepts necessary for readers to design and sketch foundational stepsin projects involving adhesive bonding. Readers willlearn the complex considerations necessary for a successful adhesive bonding process from inception to completion.
Dividing the adhesive bonding project into five clearly defined phases-planning,substrate concept,adhesive concept, feasibility, and development-the authordemonstrates how toadhere to quality requirements while completingthe reader'sown adhesive bonding processes.The book focuses on the treatment of the material surfaces to be bonded, the selection of suitable adhesives, the dimensioning of the bond, and the process steps for metering/mixing and curing the adhesives.
The book also offers:
A thorough introduction to the art and science of adhesive bonding, including adhesives, adhesive bonds, bonding in industry and craft, and an example of adhesive bonding in natureComprehensive explorations of the history of adhesive bonding technology and wetting, adhesion, and cohesionPractical discussions ofthe necessary steps to achieving safe and high-quality adhesive bonds, including gate reviews and the DIN 2304In-depth examinations of contemporary adhesive bonding applications, including examples in lightweight construction, modern façade construction, and low-energy plastics
Perfect for engineers, engineering scientists, polymer chemists, and process engineers, Adhesive Bonding in Five Steps: Achieving Safe and High Quality Bondswill also prove to be an invaluable addition to the libraries of materials scientists and surface chemists.
