ADHESIVES & GLUES

Adhesives or glues are materials that are put on to surfaces of an object and which will bind both surfaces together. An adhesive has numerous advantages over other forms of binding like sewing. The advantages include adhesive being a more cost effective method of binding compared to a other mechanical process. However a disadvantage would be a reduction in stability at increased temperatures. Different… More

Adhesives or glues are materials that are put on to surfaces of an object and which will bind both surfaces together. An adhesive has numerous advantages over other forms of binding like sewing. The advantages include adhesive being a more cost effective method of binding compared to a other mechanical process. However a disadvantage would be a reduction in stability at increased temperatures. Different adhesives are manufactured for different needs. For instance, adhesives for industrial assembly require different types of raw material and temperature resistance compared to those for other applications. Less
