Adhesive Bonding in Five Steps - Klingen, Jürgen

. .

Résumé :

Adhesive bonding is a low-heat joining technique and capable of joining virtually all technically usable materials together in a two-dimensional manner. The bond created by an adhesive is built up very gently, since the bonding process requires neither high heat - as with welding or soldering - nor structurally weakening holes - as with riveting or screwing. Since the bond is usually applied over a large area, it also ensures a relatively uniform stress distribution in the component.

Using a clearly structured 5-step management system, this book provides detailed instructions for the steps required to set up a stable process for producing a safe and high-quality bonded component. The focus is on the treatment of the material surfaces to be bonded, the selection of suitable adhesives, the dimensioning of the bond, and the process steps for metering/mixing and curing the adhesives.

The user is thus presented with sustainable materials as well as modern bonding processes. Here, the special focus is on the suitable methods for surface treatment of the substrates, the adhesives to be used and the processing methods to be employed relevant for the manufacture of bonded components in industry and trade....

Biographie:
Dr. J?rgen Klingen studied chemistry at the University of Duisburg/Germany, and received his doctorate from Prof. Robert Gillard at the University of Wales (Department Applied Chemistry) in the field of crosslinking of polyisoprene-based adhesives. For more than 35 years he held various positions in research, development and application engineering for the company 3M Deutschland GmbH, one year in corporate research in St. Paul/Minnesota, USA, where he worked on new high-performance adhesive systems for the European market. He received the 3M Corporate Circle of Technical Excellence Award for his research in this area. From 1996 to 2017, Dr. Klingen headed 3M's European Corporate Materials and Process Laboratory in Neuss, Germany, where he was responsible for technology development of new adhesives, tapes, films, coatings and polymer processing for Europe. Since the end of 2017, he has been working as a consultant for the development of bonding processes in industry and trade. Dr. Klingen is co-author of two technical books and sole author of one technical book as well as holder of several patents in the field of adhesive bonding technology.
