Synopsis
The possible use of adhesives in a new design should always be considered because of the economic and technical benefits thatthey can confer. Light, stiff and economic structures, free of the blemishes caused by conventional assembly methods, can be fabricated from a variety of materials in combinations which would otherwise be hard to achieve. Similarly, mechanisms may be built up using bonding techniques which are free of the costs and stresses implicit in press fitting. Adhesives are not a panacea, but they do have a great deal to offer as is shown by the vital role they play in modern production engineering. Yet, despite this, they are not generally regarded with enthusiasm by engineers and designers. The reason for this is not hard to find. There are so many adhesives with such diverse properties that, in the absence of a unifying science which can explain not only why adhesives stick but why they behave as they do, a very strong incentive is required to guarantee perseverance. In addition, although the polymeric structures of adhesives are well understood, this knowledge is usually of little help to the engineer who is used to dealing in precise terms and may be readily put off by a subject which he tends to regard as being arcane and wooly.

1st ed., 1. Auflage, 147 Seiten, gebundene Ausgabe, original Schutzumschlag, sehr gut This book is intended for those who have an interest in the use of adhesives in structural and mechanical engineering. It will be of particular interest to the production engineer, coping with day to day problems, the designer and the student. The book is based on many years' practical experience of the use of adhesives in a wide range of industries. The realities of 'shop-floor' conditions are acknowledged, so too is the performance of bonded components in demanding environments. Particular attention is paid to the nature, use and function of adhesives and the problems of selecting the most appropriate type for a specific application. In this latter context, the book is unique in that it has been prepared in such a manner that it may be used with a companion computer program, whose function is to sort through the millions of permutations created by the interaction of material, component design, production conditions and the ultimate performance. The program is available in a form suitable for Apple, BBC and IBM microcomputers. While there is a general section dealing with design in the widest sense, this has been supplemented by a special section dealing with the specific role of adhesives in mechanical engineering.
