Preface
A basic industrial process is the bonding of alike and different materials
to each other. Adhesion using an adhesive has proven to be an effective
means of material bonding. This book describes treatment methods that
must be applied to a material surface before successful adhesive bonding is
possible. There are numerous examples ranging from wallpaper in a house
and paint on surfaces, to parts used in the construction of aircraft.
The aim of this text is to explain, in a simple yet complete manner, all
that is required to achieve successful adhesion bonding of different mate-
rials. Fundamental material considerations have been given priority to
enable the use of the contents of this book in different industries. The book
is both a reference and a source for learning the basics, and is useful for all
involved in the product value chains. The book also offers information
helpful to engineers, chemists, students, and all others involved in material
adhesion and processing.
This book is intended to be a handbook for reference of processes and
techniques, but it is written with a technical tone. This approach increases
the availability of the whole text to readers with a college level background
in mathematics and chemistry, but an in-depth knowledge of adhesion
technology is not necessary. Chapters 6 through 8 can be used by almost
anyone interested in surface treatment of materials and does not require
college level background.
The book is organized in two parts. The first five chapters discuss
definitions, surface characterization and analysis, surface energy measure-
ment methods, adhesion mechanisms, and failure modes. Chapters 6
through 8 provide extensive information about surface treatment of
materials. Chapter 6 is focused on surface preparation and treatment of
metals and plastics to render surfaces bondable and to enhance the strength
and durability of the bond. This chapter also includes the surface treatment
XIV SURFACE TREATMENT OF MATERIALS FOR ADHESION BONDING
techniques for fluorinated polymers, which are resistant to most techniques.
Chapter 7 reviews the techniques applied to specific metals to make them
bondable. Chapter 8 describes the surface preparation methods for plastic,
thermosetting, and elastomeric materials. Some of the materials in chapters
7 and 8 are updated from the excellent reference and classic Noyes
publication, Adhesives Technology Handbook, by Arthur H. Landrock
(1985), now out of print.
Attempt has been made throughout the text to balance the practical with
the theoretical. Every chapter has been arranged so that it can be studied
independently. For those who are interested in in-depth information,
content and references have been provided for surface, adhesion, and
polymer science in chapters 1 through 5. The reader interested only in the
practical information can directly consult chapters 6 through 8. The
references listed at the end of each chapter serve as both a bibliography and
source for additional reading. Review papers are helpful as a starting point
for finding additional sources for concentrated reading in a selected area.
The sole purpose of surface treatment in the present context is to render
surfaces adherable. It is virtually impossible to understand or achieve
adequate surface preparation and treatment without an intimate knowledge
of the science and practice of adhesion.

Acknowledgments
No massive undertaking can be completed without the contributions of
many people and organizations. Many companies and individuals have
contributed information and data to this book. The authors are grateful to
each company and individual for their contributions. Diligent attempts have
been made to acknowledge every contributor. Any oversight errors brought
to the attention of the publisher or the authors will be corrected in future
editions.
We would like to especially thank our friend, Dr. Laurence W. McKeen,
for the in-depth review of the manuscript, suggestions, corrections, and
contribution of the section on the grit blasting of metals. We are indebted
to Larry for his friendship and care.
Credit goes to Arthur H. Landrock for the materials updated (found in
Chs. 7 and 8 of this book) from his excellent Adhesives Technology
Handbook (Noyes Publications, 1985), now out of print.
We would like to thank Mr. Bill Woishnis and Mr. Martin Scrivener of
William Andrew Publishing for their support of the authors in this en-
deavor. It would have been virtually impossible for us to complete this
project without the editorial and production support of Brent Beckley
(thank you for the cover design), Valerie Haynes, Betty Leahy, and
Millicent Treloar at William Andrew Publishing.
Our sincere thanks go to Ms. Jeanne Roussel and her staff at Write
One for converting the raw manuscript into a real book with endless care
and patience. We thank Jeanne for attending to the details in this
manuscript.
The authors wish to thank the staff of the Information and Computation
Technology group at the DuPont Company for their support in literature
search and securing references. We are most appreciative of Ms. Olga
Grushin and her staff, our friend Tom Johns, Debbie Hale, Rita Fisk,
XVI SURFACE TREATMENT OF MATERIALS FOR ADHESION BONDING
Carmela Brown, Debbie Martin, Cathy Brown, Shirley Olson, and Doreen
Berling at the Lavoisiers Library for all their support.
We would like to especially thank our copy editor Jessica Brooks (at the
time a student at DePaul University) for her many excellent suggestions,
corrections, and upgrades.
Finally, there are not enough words for Sina to thank his friend and
soulmate, Ms. Ghazale Dastghaib, for her unconditional support and
encouragement throughout this project.
