2. 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 ...

3. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

   Adhesives may be broadly divided in two classes: structural and pressure-sensitive. To form a permanent bond, structural adhesives harden via processes such as evaporation of solvent (for example, white glue), reaction with UV radiation (as in dental adhesives), chemical reaction (such as two part epoxy), or cooling (as in hot melt).

4. Adhesion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesion

   By intermixing periodic breaks into smooth, adhesive surfaces, the interface acquires valuable crack-arresting properties. Because crack initiation requires much greater stress than does crack propagation, surfaces like these are much harder to separate, as a new crack has to be restarted every time the next individual microstructure is reached.

5. Chemistry of pressure-sensitive adhesives - Wikipedia

   The wear of an adhesive tape as it slides across a substrate can be estimated using Archard's Law of Adhesive Wear, where and are the hardness and wear coefficients of the adhesive tape, is the distance the adhesive is dragged across the substrate surface, is the total normal load acting on the adhesive tape, and is the volume of the adhesive ...

6. Cyanoacrylate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanoacrylate

   Chemical structure of ethyl cyanoacrylate, the precursor to many commercial adhesives. The most common monomer is ethyl cyanoacrylate.Several related esters are known. To facilitate easy handling, a cyanoacrylate monomer is frequently formulated with an ingredient such as fumed silica to make it more viscous or gel-like.

7. Hot-melt adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-melt_adhesive

   Hot-melt adhesive (HMA), also known as hot glue, is a form of thermoplastic adhesive that is commonly sold as solid cylindrical sticks of various diameters designed to be applied using a hot glue gun.
