Glueing

The usual practical situation is that in which two solids are bonded by means of some kind of glue or cement. A relatively complex joint is illustrated in Fig. XII-14. The strength of a joint may be measured in various ways. A common standard method is the peel test in which the normal force to separate the joint... 

Derive Eq. XII-18. In an experiment using hexadecane and crossed mica cylinders, the circular flat contact area is about 10 cm in diameter and the two surfaces oscillate back and forth to the extent of 1 % of their diameter per second. The separation distance is 10 A and the yield pressure of the glue-backed mica is 0.1 kg/mm. ... 

It was the idea of Winterton [2] to glue the otherwise fragile mica sheets onto polished silica discs to give them better mechanical stability, especially for friction experiments. The glue layer detemiines the final... 

It is thought that the function of the glue or gelatin is to combine with very slight traces of heavy metal cations, for example Cu, which are known to catalyse the nitrogen-forming reaction. 

The entire Hving and material world consists of compounds and mixtures of compounds. Basic chemicals, such as ethylene, are produced in many millions of tons each year and are converted into a wide variety of other chemicals. Complicated molecular structures are synthesized by Mother Nature, or by chemists having taken up the challenge posed by Nature. However, we also have materials such as glues which are composed of mixtures of rather ill-defined polymers. 

The theme of this book has a strong emphasis on the structure of chemical compounds, its representation, and its correlation with properties. However, there are compounds whose structure is either unknown or ill-defincd. This is true, for example, for many polymers, particularly those that have been prepared from several components, or for many technical materials, such as glues, washing powder, etc. 

All clamps holding glass apparatus should be lined with cork, attached by means of glue or seccotine , or with asbestos paper this will reduce the danger of fracture if excessive pressure is exerted on the clamp. 

The 2-imino-4-thiazolines may be used as ultraviolet-light stabilizers of polyolefin compositions (1026). 2-Aminothiazole improves adhesive properties of wood to wood glue (271). Cbmpound 428 exhibits antioxidant properties (Scheme 242) (1027). Ammonium N-(2-thiazolyl)dithio-carbamate (429) is a bactericide and fungicide used in industrial products such as lumber, paint, plastics, and textiles (1037). Compound 430 is reported (1038) to form an excellent volume of foam coating in aluminum pans when ignited with propane.

Commercially, urea is produced by the direct dehydration of ammonium carbamate, NH2COONH4, at elevated temperature and pressure. Ammonium carbamate is obtained by direct reaction of ammonia and carbon dioxide. The two reactions are usually carried out simultaneously in a high pressure reactor. Recendy, urea has been used commercially as a catde-feed supplement (see Feeds and feed additives). Other important appHcations are the manufacture of resins (see Amino resins and plastics), glues, solvents, and some medicinals. Urea is classified as a nontoxic compound. 

Lay-up proceeds by laying down the veneer which is to be the back surface of the panel. Then a sufficient number of pieces of core veneer are passed through the glue spreader to form the next layer of cross-oriented veneer. The glue spreader commonly used in hardwood plywood manufacture is a roU coater in which a pair of opposing mbber roUs are coated with a thin layer of adhesive. As the veneer is passed between the roUs, the adhesive is transferred to the surfaces of the veneer. Adhesive is appHed only to the cross-pfles and in sufficient quantity to provide a continuous layer on both opposing faces of veneer. Thus, in the case of a three-ply panel, only the core layer is spread with adhesive and in that of a five-ply panel, the second and fourth layers both of which are cross-pfles, are spread with adhesive. Then the top surface veneer, which is normally the decorative surface, is placed on the assembly.
