商品簡介
Adhesive bonding is a cost-effective, useful and often necessary way to join structures. This important book reviews the most recent improvements in adhesive bonding and their wide-ranging potential in structural engineering.
Part Ireviews advances in the most commonly used groups of structural adhesives with chapters covering topics such as epoxy, polyurethane, silicone, cyanoacrylate and acrylic adhesives. The second set of chapters covers the various types of adherends and pre-treatment methods for a range of structural materials such as metals, composites and plastics. Chapters in Part III analyse methods and techniques with topics on joint design, life prediction, fracture mechanics and testing. The final group of chapters gives useful and practical insights into the problems and solutions of adhesive bonding in a variety of hostile environments such as chemical, wet and extreme temperatures.
With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Advances in structural adhesive bonding will be a standard reference for engineers, designers, and adhesive formulators in industry and the academic sector.
