Abstract:
Choosing the best adhesive method can be an exacting design task. This is especially true when joining dissimilar materials and when bonding certain plastics. All too often the adhesive is not fully considered at the design stage, which leads to problems during production. This guide discusses the key elements of the bonding process and provides advice when things do not go right.

01:12Bonding and Strength of Aggregate
The bond between aggregate particles and the cement matrix is significantly influenced by the shape and surface texture of the aggregates. High-strength concretes benefit from a rougher texture, which leads to stronger bonding due to greater adhesion. Angular aggregates with larger surface areas also enhance this bond. The bonding quality, however, is complex to assess as no universally accepted test exists. Good bonding is indicated when a crushed concrete specimen shows some aggregate...
02:32Bonding in Metals
Metallic bonds are formed between two metal atoms. A simplified model to describe metallic bonding has been developed by Paul Drüde called the “Electron Sea Model”.
