Pokraskin The impressive developments in numerous fields of technology — anything we can imagine from bookbinding, food packaging, electronic devices, automobile manufacture to building and aircraft constructions — all engeneering progress in these and other areas is enabled and accelerated by innovations in adhesive technology.
Although adhesive applications mostly are not readily evident in daily life — except for some do-it-yourself areas, e. g. paper gluing, and repairs — experts in the development and engeneering departments value adhesive technology as an important tool to find solutions to a wide range of technical problems. Strong points are the great variability in the kind and the properties of the adhesives, e. g. drying or reacting liquids, melting solids, adhesive tapes and die cuts.
This book, a special edition of the chapters “Adhesives” and “Adhesive Tapes” of Ullmann’s Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, is intended as a guidance for everybody interested in getting an overview on the various adhesives, their different properties, and the wide field of applications.
