Gluing technology

Filling the textbook on industrial bonding techniques. In parts of the industry, the strength of the joint for parts joined together by gluing is the same as the strength of screw, welded or soldered joints. Due to the advantages of gluing operations and state-of-the-art adhesives, the use of glued joints is spreading rapidly. The book describes in detail and thoroughly the theory of gluing, the possibilities of its application and the adhesives. The volume is the Hungarian edition of the book entitled German Industrial Bonding Technology, which has already been published in 6 editions in German. From the contents: 1. Introduction 1.1.
