5.1.2 History of adhesives ◼ The first evidence of something used as an adhesive dates back to 4000 B.C. ◼ The period of time between 1500-1000 B.C. gave further proof that glue had become a method of assembly. ◼ The first references in literature concerning glue and the art of glue appear about the year 200 B.C. ◼ The next period of activity is from 1-500 A.D. when the Romans and Greeks developed the art of veneering and marquetry. ◼ Adhesives were used in the building of furniture from 1500 to 1700 A.D
The first commercial glue factory was started inHolland to manufacture animal glue from hides inlabout 1700 A.D. The first glue patent was issued in Britain for a fishglue in about 1750 A.D. The industrial revolution caused an explosion intechnical breakthroughs, most of the technology ofadhesives has been developed during the last 100years.Adhesives touch our lives every day

5.1.3 General terms ◼ Adhesion Adhesion is the process by which two surfaces are held together by interfacial forces (surface attraction) or mechanical interlocking. ◼ Adhesive An adhesive is a substance which is capable of holding materials together in a useful fashion by means of surface attraction. Surface attraction results from placing a thin layer of adhesive between two objects
Cohesion ‘Cohesion' is the force prevailing betweenthe molecules within an adhesive which keeps thematerial together. These forces include:intermolecularforces of attraction (Van der Waals forces)interlocking of the polymer molecules among themselves.Substrate-1AdhesivemoleculesRSubstrate2AdhesionCohesion
◼ Cohesion ‘Cohesion’ is the force prevailing between the molecules within an adhesive which keeps the material together. These forces include: ◼ intermolecular forces of attraction (Van der Waals forces) ◼ interlocking of the polymer molecules among themselves
Bond line The bond line is the space or gap between twoisubstrates which contains the adhesive.Substrate A substrate is a material which is held by anadhesive. Substrate is a generic term for the objects which arebeing bonded.Surface The surface of an object is that face of the objectwhich is coated with an adhesive.
