Summary
Summary
Following the successful first, the second edition is a complete guide to all that is required to successfully bond materials. It is both a reference and a source for learning the basics for those involved in the entire product value chains. Basic principles of adhesion such as surface characterization, types of adhesive bonds, and adhesion failure topics are covered in addition to a description of common adhesive materials and application techniques.

Choice Review
Geared toward industry and research applications, this new edition (1st ed. by A. H. Landrock, 1985) provides a useful quick reference to mechanical and chemical information for a variety of adhesives and adherents as well as the equations and theories that govern these interactions. The handbook includes background knowledge on theories of adhesion and bonding, thermodynamics of adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension, surface preparations, and classifications and nomenclature of adhesives. These first four background chapters are short and assume prior knowledge of chemistry, thermodynamics, and atomic interactions. Therefore, they are not a substitute for an in-depth course on adhesion science. Chapters 5 and 6 provide a versatile means of selecting a suitable adhesive for any given application by listing over 60 different adhesive groups alphabetically, as well as grouping adhesives by the relating substrate materials. The book also provides detailed discussions on the durability of adhesives in various environments (chapter 10), joint design for specific mechanical and material applications (chapter 7), and methods of application (chapter 8). With an extensive index, glossary, and detailed bibliographies for each chapter, this handbook has applications as a reference book for adhesive selection and as a refresher for technical and theoretical aspects of adhesive technology. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections. L. D. Frame University of Arizona
