Surface Treatment of Materials for Adhesion Bonding describes and illustrates the surface preparations and operations that must be applied to a surface before acceptable adhesive bonding is achieved.
Features:
- Covers up-to-date surface treatment technologies such as: Atmospheric Plasma, Degreasing, Grit Blast, and Etching of metals and Chemical Etching, Corona and Flame Treatment of plastics
- Covers a wide array of materials, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene fluoropolymers, polyvinyl fluoride, nylon, aluminum, stainless steel, cold-rolled steel, copper, and titanium
- Discusses surface preparation techniques with a focus on method
- Includes in-depth explanations and examples of material-specific processes and conditions
