Rubber to Rubber Adhesion


Book Description

In diesem Buch werden die verschiedenen Aspekte der Gummi-Gummi-Haftung betrachtet. Gummi ist ein Polymer mit einer Glasübergangstemperatur deutlich unterhalb der Raumtemperatur, daher sind die Ketten bei Raumtemperatur und höheren Temperaturen äußerst mobil. Diese Eigenschaft macht das Material sehr vielseitig. Gummi wird in zahlreichen Anwendungen eingesetzt, vom Bergbau über Fahrzeugreifen bis zum Space-Shuttle. In all diesen Fällen werden Gummimischungen in Verbundstoffen verwendet und zusammengefügt. Je höher die Haftung, desto höher ist auch die Verbindungsfestigkeit. Die Grundsätze der Adhäsionswissenschaft und -technik werden umfassend genutzt, um bessere Verbindungen und somit nützlichere Produkte herzustellen. Der Inhalt dieses Werks ist nicht nur von theoretischer Bedeutung, sondern hat auch Auswirkungen auf die Praxis. Die Gummi-Gummi-Haftung ist ein allgegenwärtiges Thema. Daher ist das Buch ein wichtiges Hilfsmittel für Wissenschaftler, Mitarbeitende in der Forschung und Entwicklung, Beschäftigte in Unternehmen sowie Personen, die sich in der Praxis mit Gummi und Haftung beschäftigen. Das Buch findet in den unterschiedlichsten Fachgebieten Verwendung (Polymere, Materialwissenschaft, Verfahrenstechnik, Chemie usw.). Zunächst wird das Material Gummi vorgestellt, es folgt eine Charakterisierung von Gummi, Angaben zu Gummioberflächen und -verbindungen und schließlich befassen sich die weiteren Kapitel mit der Gummi-Gummi-Haftung. Die wissenschaftlichen Aspekte, die zum Verständnis der Technik erforderlich sind, werden hervorgehoben. Das Werk enthält eine ausführliche Darstellung der Haftung zwischen unvulkanisierten Elastomeren, der Selbstheilung von Elastomeren, der Haftung zwischen Elastomermischungen durch Co-Vernetzung, der Haftung zwischen teilvulkanisierten Gummimischungen und teilvulkanisierten Gummimischungen, der Haftung zwischen vulkanisiertem Gummi und unvulkanisiertem Gummi oder teilvulkanisiertem Gummi sowie der Haftung zwischen vulkanisiertem Gummi und vulkanisiertem Gummi.




Handbook of Adhesion Technology


Book Description

Adhesives have been used for thousands of years, but until 100 years ago, the vast majority was from natural products such as bones, skins, fish, milk, and plants. Since about 1900, adhesives based on synthetic polymers have been introduced, and today, there are many industrial uses of adhesives and sealants. It is difficult to imagine a product—in the home, in industry, in transportation, or anywhere else for that matter—that does not use adhesives or sealants in some manner. The Handbook of Adhesion Technology is intended to be the definitive reference in the field of adhesion. Essential information is provided for all those concerned with the adhesion phenomenon. Adhesion is a phenomenon of interest in diverse scientific disciplines and of importance in a wide range of technologies. Therefore, this handbook includes the background science (physics, chemistry and materials science), engineering aspects of adhesion and industry specific applications. It is arranged in a user-friendly format with ten main sections: theory of adhesion, surface treatments, adhesive and sealant materials, testing of adhesive properties, joint design, durability, manufacture, quality control, applications and emerging areas. Each section contains about five chapters written by internationally renowned authors who are authorities in their fields. This book is intended to be a reference for people needing a quick, but authoritative, description of topics in the field of adhesion and the practical use of adhesives and sealants. Scientists and engineers of many different backgrounds who need to have an understanding of various aspects of adhesion technology will find it highly valuable. These will include those working in research or design, as well as others involved with marketing services. Graduate students in materials, processes and manufacturing will also want to consult it.







Developments In Pressure-Sensitive Products


Book Description

Since the first groundbreaking edition of Developments in Pressure-Sensitive Products was introduced in 1998, heavy research has resulted in substantial progress in the field. Fully updated and expanded to reflect this activity, Developments in Pressure-Sensitive Products, Second Edition provides a detailed overview of the entire range of pressure-




Pressure-Sensitive Design and Formulation, Application


Book Description

Growing interest in the formulation of pressure-sensitive adhesives as described in the first edition of this book ( Pressure-Sensitive Formulation, VSP, 2000) required a new, enlarged edition including the design of pressure-sensitive adhesives as a separate volume. Developments in the understanding of pressure sensitivity were necessary to use ma




Progress in Adhesion and Adhesives, Volume 3


Book Description

A solid collection of interdisciplinary review articles on the latest developments in adhesion science and adhesives technology With the ever-increasing amount of research being published, it is a Herculean task to be fully conversant with the latest research developments in any field, and the arena of adhesion and adhesives is no exception. Thus, topical review articles provide an alternate and very efficient way to stay abreast of the state-of-the-art in many subjects representing the field of adhesion science and adhesives. Based on the success of the preceding volumes in this series "Progress in Adhesion and Adhesives"), the present volume comprises 12 review articles published in Volume 5 (2017) of Reviews of Adhesion and Adhesives. The subject of these 12 reviews fall into the following general areas: 1. Nanoparticles in reinforced polymeric composites. 2. Wettability behavior and its modification, including superhydrophobic surfaces. 3. Ways to promote adhesion, including rubber adhesion. 4. Adhesives and adhesive joints 5. Dental adhesion. The topics covered include: Nanoparticles as interphase modifiers in fiber reinforced polymeric composites; fabrication of micro/nano patterns on polymeric substrates to control wettability behavior; plasma processing of aluminum alloys to promote adhesion; UV-curing of adhesives; functionally graded adhesively bonded joints; adhesion between unvulgarized elastomers; electrowetting for digital microfluidics; control of biofilm at the tooth-restoration bonding interface; easy-to-clean superhydrophobic coatings; cyanoacrylates; promotion of resin-dentin bond longevity in adhesive dentistry; and effects of nanoparticles on nanocomposites Mode I and Mode II fractures.




Coatings Tribology


Book Description

The last few decades have seen rapid development in the field of surface engineering and its applications in almost all industrial sectors. Tribological coatings, which are an important aspect of surface engineering, are today applied on machine component surfaces for a diverse range of moving machine components to control (mostly to minimize) friction and wear in order to conserve energy and materials. This reprint book is a compilation of 11 research papers contributed by experts in the field of surface engineering and tribology. These papers have dealt with the synthesis of various types of coatings, characterization and applications under different operating conditions. It is hoped that this reprint book will be of interest, not only to researchers, but also to practicing engineers and technologists in the industry.
