8th International Conference on Structural Adhesive Bonding 2025
Description
This book presents selected contributions of the 8th International Conference on Structural Adhesive Bonding AB 2025, held in Porto, Portugal, July 10-11, 2025.
The focus of the conference is on structural bonding, however, all areas of bonding are treated. This volume provides the latest trends related to adhesive joining. The chapters cover a wide range of topics such as adhesive formulation and properties, adhesion and surface treatments, manufacturing, joint design, and applications. The book shows that adhesive bonding is increasingly being used in several key industries.
The book will appeal to a wide readership, from practitioners through graduate students to researchers working in this field.
