  2. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

    Articles such as tapes and labels are made from liquid PSAs by coating the adhesive on a support and evaporating the organic solvent or water carrier, usually in a hot air dryer. The dry adhesive may be further heated to initiate a cross-linking reaction and increase molecular weight. 100% solid PSAs may be low viscosity polymers that are ...

  3. Hot-melt adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-melt_adhesive

    The gun uses a continuous-duty heating element to melt the plastic glue, which the user pushes through the gun either with a mechanical trigger mechanism on the gun, or with direct finger pressure. The glue squeezed out of the heated nozzle is initially hot enough to burn and even blister skin. The glue is sticky when hot, and solidifies in a ...

    ~4 hours for softwood, 8 for hardwood; must be under pressure for >0.5-2 hrs tensile strength exceeds most woods, 2,200-3,00 pounds per square inch water-resistant, depending on alkalis used Woodworking, paper glue, fireproof laminates Medieval or earlier Soybean glue: As for casein glue, but using soy protein Soy protein is mixed with alkalis

  5. Cyanoacrylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanoacrylate

    The original patent for cyanoacrylate was filed in 1947 by the B.F. Goodrich Company [2] as an outgrowth of a search for materials suitable for clear plastic gun sights for the war effort. In 1942, a team of scientists headed by Harry Coover Jr. stumbled upon a formulation that stuck to everything with which it came in contact. [ 3 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraloid_B-72

    Paraloid B-72 or B-72 is a thermoplastic resin that was created by Rohm and Haas for use as a surface coating and as a vehicle for flexographic ink.Subsequently, it has found popular use as an adhesive by conservator-restorers, specifically in the conservation and restoration of ceramic objects, glass objects, [1] the preparation of fossils, the hardening of piano hammers, [2] [3] and can also ...

    Adhesive is usually coated on a polypropylene or polyester film. Commonly 48 mm (1.9 in) or 72 mm (2.8 in) wide. Double-sided tape This tape has adhesive on both sides, and is used to stick two surfaces together. Duct tape Usually gray in color, this tape is backed with scrim, often coated with rubber or plastic. [1] Elastic therapeutic tape

    Acrylic paints as artist paints. Acrylic fibre. Sodium polyacrylate water-soluble thickeners, a polymer for the production of the Superabsorbent polymer (SAP) used in disposable diapers due to its high absorbency per unit mass. Acrylic resin as pressure-sensitive adhesive. "Super glue" is a formulation of cyanoacrylate.

  9. Impact glue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_glue

    Impact glue, contact glue, contact cement, or neoprene glue is a type of solvent-based adhesive which may be used to bond materials such as plastics, laminates, and metal or wood veneers. [1] The term "contact glue" come from the practice of applying adhesive to both surfaces to be bonded; the surfaces are joined once the solvent in the ...
