Adhesives in medical applications

The use of adhesives in medical applications was for a long time restricted to the manufacture of self-adhesive bandages (plasters, self-adhesive strips of fabric, etc.) (Figure 1). The first pressure sensitive adhesives used for this were based on...
Adhesives for packaging materials

An extremely high proportion of all industrial products are sold in packaging – either due to stability requirements for storage and transport or for aesthetic reasons...
Electronics/electrical engineering

From the very outset, the rapid developments in the area of electronics have involved ever smaller components and ever greater circuit complexity. The continuing miniaturisation has not only resulted in smaller components but also components that are...
Lightweight design for aircraft, rail vehicle and container manufacture

For several decades now, bonding has been one of the most important joining techniques in aircraft manufacture. The specific reasons for this include the fact that bonds have lifetimes of up to 30 years, high resistance to dynamic loads and media and...
Bonding panels of glass into car

The panes of glass are fitted after painting and lacquering the car bodywork. In days gone by, the front and rear windscreens were fitted into the bodywork using a profile made of an elastomer that surrounded the glass...
Bonding metal sheets in vehicle bodywork construction

Car bodies largely comprise steel sheets having a thickness of 0.6 to 0.8 mm. The trend in modern car bodies is towards a flatter design with as little wind resistance as possible, low weight and hence ultimately reduced fuel consumption...
Bonding wood

In woodwork, and in particular in the furnituremaking industry, polyvinyl acetate dispersion adhesives have long superseded the carpentry adhesives based on animal proteins that were used thousand of years ago...
