Adhesive Bonding Technology and Testing Comprehensive resource that provides insight into the purpose and design of experiments for adhesive bonding, joint design and strength prediction
This book provides support for those practicing and teaching adhesive bonding and enables them to understand and design laboratorial courses and experiments. To aid in reader comprehension and information retention, a selected set of problems with corresponding solutions is included, which helps readers to develop a deep understanding of the subject matter. Written by five highly qualified professionals in the field of adhesive bonding, sample topics covered in the book include:
- Practical demonstrations of adhesive bonding, plus discussion on the advantages and disadvantages of the technique
- Detailed laboratorial activities that pertain to adhesive bonding
- The manufacturing of defect-free bonded joints
- The effects of geometry and materials properties in adhesive joint testing, surface preparation, joint design, and strength prediction
This book is an essential resource for chemists, engineers, and students/instructors in related programs of study who wish to conduct better and more efficient experiments that pertain to adhesive bonding and related concepts.
