E-grāmata: Handbook of Adhesion Promoters

Handbook of Adhesion Promoters, Second Edition provides a comprehensive review of the current options and latest knowledge on adhesion promoters. Essential aspects of adhesion promoters are discussed, including properties and potential applications of all adhesion promoters. The book outlines known mechanisms, principles of use, action, and the applications of different groups, as well as the mechanisms that cause adhesion loss, such as corrosion, delamination, detachment, liquid penetration, and peeling. Surface condition and treatment are discussed, including different methods (cleaning, mechanical, plasma, microwave, flame, corona discharge, laser, UV, and chemical modification) for practical applications. Formulation of typical primers used in the application of adhesives, sealants, coatings, coil coatings, cosmetics, metal, optical devices, polymers and plastics, and more are covered, with over 50 primer formulations provided. A full chapter is dedicated to the subject of polymer modification for improved adhesion, a method frequently used instead of the addition of adhesion promoters. The final chapters contain information on available evaluation and selection of adhesion promoters that work with different polymers (29), products (28), and help to prevent corrosion.
