ENGINEERING ADHESIVES AND SEALANTS

Definition - An adhesive is any substance applied to the surfaces of materials that binds them together and resists separation( Wikipedia)  

Adhesives have become an intergal part of our life. They find usage in almost everything we can think of, starting from:

·        craft work done by school kids, hobby classes

·        assembling aircrafts, spaceships, Locomotives, white goods, Engineering goods etc.

·        Sealing food packets, laminating fabrics

·        manufacturing medical devices like catherters, syringes, blood bags etc

·        Buildings, bridges, dams, windmills, solar generators

The list is endless ........

Globally ,adhesives & sealants market size is expected to be $59.75 Billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 4.72% between 2015 and 2020.

Adhesives can be classified into various categories depending upon:

·         Chemistry of the adhesive: Epoxy, Urethane, Cyanoacrylate, Acrylics, Silicones, Methylmethacrylates  ...

·         Curing method: Hot melts, UV , Moisture curing , Heat cure, Pressure curing

·         Natural or Synthetic

·         Water based, Solvent based
