Adhesion Measurement Methods: Theory and Practice

Depending on the intended purpose, the precise meaning of adhesion strength is quite slippery. A measurement taken for thin-film application of a substance will likely have little predictive merit for a thick-film application of that substance to exactly the same substrate. Adhesion Measurement Methods: Theory and Practice provides practical information on the most important measurement techniques, their unique advantages and disadvantages, and the selection of the proper method for a given application. The author discusses optimal methods for setting adhesion strength requirements while avoiding over-specification of such requirements. An entire chapter provides detailed examples of adhesion problems.
