2. Rubber cement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_cement

   Rubber cement (cow gum in British English) is an adhesive made from elastic polymers (typically latex) mixed in a solvent such as acetone, hexane, heptane or toluene to keep it fluid enough to be used. This makes it part of the class of drying adhesives: as the solvents quickly evaporate, the rubber solidifies, forming a strong yet flexible bond.

3. Tackifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tackifier

   Some acrylic adhesives also include an additional tackifier. Silicone rubber–based pressure-sensitive adhesives require special tackifiers based on "MQ" silicate resins, composed of a monofunctional trimethyl silane ("M") reacted with quadrafunctional silicon tetrachloride ("Q"). [3] Tackifiers are also used in tyres.

   The use of PVAc on the Archimedes Palimpsest during the 20th century greatly hindered the task of disbinding the book and preserving and imaging the pages in the early 21st century, in part because the glue was stronger than the parchment it held together. [7] In handicrafts. As envelope adhesive. As wallpaper adhesive.

5. Polyvinyl siloxane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinyl_siloxane

   Polyvinyl siloxane (PVS), also called poly-vinyl siloxane, vinyl polysiloxane (VPS), or vinylpolysiloxane, is an addition-reaction silicone elastomer (an addition silicone). It is a viscous liquid that cures (solidifies) quickly into a rubber-like solid, taking the shape of whatever surface it was lying against while curing.

6. Vinyl composition tile - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_composition_tile

   Vinyl floor tiling. Vinyl composition tile (VCT) is a finished flooring material used primarily in commercial and institutional applications. Modern vinyl floor tiles and sheet flooring and versions of those products sold since the early 1980s are composed of colored polyvinyl chloride (PVC) chips formed into solid sheets of varying thicknesses (1 ⁄ 8 in or 3.2 mm is most common) by heat and ...

7. Adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive

   There are two types of adhesives that harden by drying: solvent-based adhesives and polymer dispersion adhesives, also known as emulsion adhesives. Solvent-based adhesives are a mixture of ingredients (typically polymers) dissolved in a solvent. White glue, contact adhesives and rubber cements are members of the drying adhesive family. As the ...
