Heteroatom functionalized terpene resins are also utilized in hot melt adhesive and ink appHcations. Diels-Alder reaction of terpenic dienes or trienes with acrylates, methacrylates, or other a, P-unsaturated esters of polyhydric alcohols has been shown to yield resins with superior pressure sensitive adhesive properties relative to petroleum and unmodified polyterpene resins (107). Limonene—phenol resins, produced by the BF etherate-catalyzed condensation of 1.4—2.0 moles of limonene with 1.0 mole of phenol have been shown to impart improved tack, elongation, and tensile strength to ethylene—vinyl acetate and ethylene—methyl acrylate-based hot melt adhesive systems (108). Terpene polyol ethers have been shown to be particularly effective tackifiers in pressure sensitive adhesive appHcations (109). 

Phenolic resin substantially increases open time and peel strength of the formulation (80). For example, higher methylol and methylene ether contents of the resin improves peel strength and elevated temperature resistance. Adhesive properties are also influenced by the molecular weight distribution of the phenoHc low molecular weight reduces adhesion (82). 

In addition to transport properties, the adhesive properties are characterized by tensile measurements. For instance, the peel strength is deterrnined by measuring the force required to pull the adhesive from a substrate at a constant speed in a controUed temperature and humidity environment. 

Some rubber base adhesives need vulcanization to produce adequate ultimate strength. The adhesion is mainly due to chemical interactions at the interface. Other rubber base adhesives (contact adhesives) do not necessarily need vulcanization but rather adequate formulation to produce adhesive joints, mainly with porous substrates. In this case, the mechanism of diffusion dominates their adhesion properties. Consequently, the properties of the elastomeric adhesives depend on both the variety of intrinsic properties in natural and synthetic elastomers, and the modifying additives which may be incorporated into the adhesive formulation (tackifiers, reinforcing resins, fillers, plasticizers, curing agents, etc.). 

Tackifiers. Phenolic resins are added to increase strength, oils resistance and resiliency of NBR adhesives. On the other hand, tack and adhesive properties can be improved by adding chlorinated alkyl carbonates. To impart tack, hydrogenated rosin resins and coumarone-indene resins can be added. 

In silicone adhesives used to bond structural glazing assemblies, the silicone network is made of very long PDMS chains and is filled with silica that improves the elastomeric properties of the adhesive. The strength of such an adhesive is strongly enhanced through various mechanisms of energy absorption. 

New raw materials will be the key to unlocking the opportunities above and to creating the possibility for new sets of adhesive properties. On the horizon are new types of moisture curable systems and a variety of novel block copolymers. The future may find entirely new mechanisms or morphologies for strength development on cooling. 

St. Clair et. al. investigated a series of maleimide and nadimide terminated polyimides and developed LARC-13 [8,9]. Changing the terminal group from maleimide to nadimide, the value of the lap shear strength of a titanium lap shear joint increased from 7 to 19 MPa [9]. They also added an elastomeric component to the adhesive formulation. The introduction of 15 wt% of a rubbery component, ATBN (amine terminated butadiene nitrile polymer) and ADMS (aniline terminated polydimethyl siloxane) enhanced the adhesive properties as follows 19 MPa to 25 MPa (ATBN) titanium T-peel strength 0.2 kN/m to 1.4...

The high cohesive strength developed during the curing of these materials tends to place stress on their adhesive properties. 

Acidification of chloramine T with sulfuric acid produces the formation of dichloramine T (DCT) and hypochlorous acid (HCIO), species which react with C=C bonds of the butadiene units. The effectiveness of the treatment is ascribed to the introduction of chlorine and oxygen moieties on the mbber surface. A decrease in the pH of the chloramine T aqueous solutions produced more extended surface modifications and improved adhesion properties in the joints produced with waterborne polyurethane adhesive (Figure 27.9). The adhesive strength obtained is slightly lower than that obtained for the rubber treated with 3 wt% TCI/MEK, and its increases as the pH of the chloramine T solution decreases (Figure 27.9). A cohesive failure in the rubber is generally obtained. 

Quaternary ammonium salts (Cio to Cig alkyl benzyl dimethyl ammonium chloride) added in 40 ppm and 2% of sodium chloride effect an increase in the strength of the cement rock and the adhesion properties by 50% to 80% [1769]. 

A plugging material with 2-furaldehyde-acetone monomer and silicone oligomers has been described [1099]. The components for this material are shown in Table 18-1. The 2-furaldehyde-acetone monomer can contain mono-furfurylidene-acetone and difurfurylidene-acetone. The hardener can be iron chloride, benzene-sulfonic acid, hexamethylene diamine, or polyethylene polyamine. The plugging stone has improved strength, elastic-deformation, and anticorrosion and adhesion properties. 

Consideration of the relationship between the effects of radiation on homopolymers and copolymers raises the question of the variation from homopolymer behaviour with sequence length. Every copolymer has a distribution of sequence lengths for each comonomer. At what minimum sequence length does methyl methacrylate not show the high scission of PMMA The future will probably see the development of processes for making polymers with controlled mini-block sequences to maximize a number of properties such as scission yield, adhesion, flexural strength, Tg.. 

PVA has also been extensively used for immobilization of biocatalysts in a membranous form. As compared to PAAm, PVA is more hydrophilic and having adhesive property with better tensile strength in dry conditions. But it has high swelling index and dissolves readily in water when not cross-linked. PVA can be cross-linked using a variety of reagents including...
