Adhesive Bonding: Science, Technology and Applications

This important collection reviews key research on adhesive
behaviour and applications in sectors as diverse as construction and
automotive engineering. The book is divided into three main parts:
fundamentals, mechanical properties and applications. Part 1 focuses on the
basic properties of adhesives, surface assessment and treatment. Part 2
concentrates on understanding how adhesives perform under stress and the
factors affecting fatigue and failure. The final part of the book reviews
industry specific applications in areas such as building and construction,
transport and electrical engineering.
