Thermodynamics of Adhesion

  • Chapter
Fundamentals of Adhesion

Abstract

This work outlines the mechanism of interfacial interactions with respect to different types of forces involved, discusses a transition between theoretical considerations and practical applications, e.g., in the area of adhesive bonds, and describes experimental techniques necessary for characterization of surfaces with respect to thermodynamic parameters that are significant for the bond design.
