  2. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

    In contrast, pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) form a bond simply by the application of light pressure to marry the adhesive with the adherend. Pressure-sensitive adhesives are designed with a balance between flow and resistance to flow. The bond forms because the adhesive is soft enough to flow, or wet, the adherend.

  3. Chemistry of pressure-sensitive adhesives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry_of_pressure...

    The pressure applied to the tape allows the tape to have better contact with the surface and allows the physical forces between the two to build up. Usually, increased application pressure increases the bond of the adhesive to the substrate. PSA tape laboratory testing is often conducted with a 2 kg roller to increase test uniformity. [13]

  4. Pressure swing adsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_swing_adsorption

    Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) is a technique used to separate some gas species from a mixture of gases (typically air) under pressure according to the species' molecular characteristics and affinity for an adsorbent material.

  5. Adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive

    Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA) form a bond by the application of light pressure to bind the adhesive with the adherend. They are designed to have a balance between flow and resistance to flow. The bond forms because the adhesive is soft enough to flow (i.e., "wet") to the adherend.

  6. Hot-melt adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-melt_adhesive

    Fugitive glues and pressure-sensitive adhesives are available in hot-melt form. With a tack-like consistency, PSA are bonded through the application of pressure at room temperature. [40] Additives and polymers containing unsaturated bonds are highly prone to autoxidation. Examples include rosin-based additives. Antioxidants can be used for ...

  7. Professional services automation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_services...

    PSA software is designed to improve the performance and profitability of professional services firms. A recent end-user survey conducted by SPI Research [4] showed significant improvement in key performance indicators such as: Faster staffing and invoicing workflows; Lower project cancellation rates; Improved on-time, under-budget project ...

  8. Particle size analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_size_analysis

    The application of LD PSAs is also normally restricted to dilute suspensions. This is because the optical models used to estimate the particle size distribution (PSD) are based on a single scattering approximation. In practice, most industrial processes require measuring concentrated suspensions, where multiple scattering becomes a prominent ...

  9. Public service announcement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_service_announcement

    A public service announcement (PSA) is a message in the public interest disseminated by the media without charge to raise public awareness and change behavior. Oftentimes these messages feature unsettling imagery, ideas or behaviors that are designed to startle or even scare the viewer into understanding the consequences of undergoing a particular harmful action or inaction (such as pictures ...
