A substance that adheres one surface to another. Adhesives provide a wide selection of properties, solubility, tackiness, bonding time, and bonding strength. They can be used on nearly every kind of surface, such as wood, glass, metal, plastic, paper, fabric, and rubber. Adhesives are usually activated by water, solvents, pressure, heat, cold, or UV radiation. In some cases, surface treatment, abrasion, or an adhesion promoter may be needed to increase the strength or durability of the adhesive bond. Adhesives may be classified as inorganic and organic adhesives.

Description

A substance that adheres one surface to another. Adhesives provide a wide selection of properties, solubility, tackiness, bonding time, and bonding strength. They can be used on nearly every kind of surface, such as wood, glass, metal, plastic, paper, fabric, and rubber. Adhesives are usually activated by water, solvents, pressure, heat, cold, or UV radiation. In some cases, surface treatment, abrasion, or an adhesion promoter may be needed to increase the strength or durability of the adhesive bond. Adhesives may be classified as inorganic and organic adhesives.

Examples of inorganic adhesives are water glass, plaster of Paris and portland cement.

Organic adhesives may be subdivided by origins into animal (hide, bone, blood, casein, etc.), vegetable (starch, gum, natural resin, etc.) and synthetic (acrylic, vinyl acetate, cyanoacrylate, epoxy, silicone, etc.).
