   Wood glue is an adhesive used to tightly bond pieces of wood together. Many substances have been used as glues. Many substances have been used as glues. Traditionally animal proteins like casein from milk or collagen from animal hides and bones were boiled down to make early glues.

3. Chemistry of pressure-sensitive adhesives - Wikipedia

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

   This is accomplished by using a material that enables the easy removal of favorable interactions at the adhesive-backing or adhesive-adhesive interface, or by making both surfaces immiscible in one another. Two common materials used in polyacrylate-based adhesive tapes are fluorosilicones [9] and vinyl carbamates. [6]

4. Lamination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamination

   Plywood is a common example of a laminate using the same material in each layer combined with an adhesive. Glued and laminated dimensional timber is used in the construction industry to make beams ( glued laminated timber , or Glulam ), in sizes larger and stronger than those that can be obtained from single pieces of wood.

5. Laminated veneer lumber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminated_veneer_lumber

   The invention of laminated veneer lumber as known today can be attributed to Arthur Troutner. While glue laminated wood veneers were in use since the middle of the 19th century on a small scale for furniture and pianos, Troutner was the first to develop a laminated veneer lumber of a scale large enough to be used in construction.

6. Pressed wood - Wikipedia

   Pressed wood, also known as presswood, is any engineered wood building and furniture construction material made from wood shavings and particles, sawdust or wood fibers bonded together with an adhesive under heat and pressure. [1]

7. Medium-density fibreboard - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-density_fibreboard

   Medium-density fibreboard (MDF) is an engineered wood product made by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibre, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and a resin binder, and forming it into panels by applying high temperature and pressure. [1] MDF is generally denser than plywood.

8. Hardboard - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardboard

   It is used in construction, flooring, furniture, home appliances, automobiles and cabinetry, and is popular among acrylic and oil painters as a painting surface due to its economical price (though it must be coated with gesso or canvas before use). [9] Hardboard has often been used as the surface material in clipboards, especially older models.

9. Vinyl coated polyester - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_coated_polyester

   Vinyl coated polyester is a material frequently used for flexible fabric structures. It is made up of a polyester scrim , a bonding or adhesive agent, and an exterior PVC coating. The scrim supports the coating (which is initially applied in liquid form) and provides the tensile strength, elongation, tear strength, and dimensional stability of ...
