Growing interest in the formulation of pressure-sensitive adhesives as described in the first edition of this book ( Pressure-Sensitive Formulation, VSP, 2000) required a new, enlarged edition including the design of pressure-sensitive adhesives as a separate volume. Developments in the understanding of pressure sensitivity were necessary to use macromolecular chemistry for pressure-sensitive design. Such developments include polymer physics and contact mechanics. Progress in coating technology, especially in in-line coating- and synthesis, opened new ways for the design of pressure-sensitive adhesives and products as well. Actually, pressure-sensitive-products with and without adhesives compete requiring a broad variety of material formulations and the corresponding manufacturing technology.
The first volume of the book examines the theoretical aspects of pressure-sensitive design, based on macromolecular chemistry, macromolecular physics, rheology and contact mechanics.
The second volume describes the practical aspects of pressure-sensitive design and formulation, related to product application.
The advances in the various domains are described by specialists.

About the Author

István Benedek, Ph.D. (1972) in Polymer Chemistry and Engineering Technology from the Polytechnic University of Temeswar. He is the author of several books about polymers. He published the following works about pressure-sensitives: Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives Technology (Marcel Dekker, 1997); Developments and Manufacture of Pressure-Sensitive Products (Marcel Dekker, 1999), Pressure-Sensitive Formulation (VSP, 2000); Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives and Applications (Marcel Dekker, 2004) and Developments in Pressure-Sensitive Products (CRC, 2005).
