Summary:Structural adhesives offer a strong, cost-effective, and fast joining technology. Automotive, aircraft manufacturing, shipbuilding, electronics, and the construction sectors have all benefited from the recent technical developments in adhesive bonding technology. Lightweight and multi-material designs, progressive integration and miniaturization, as well as increasing complexity have created a steady rise in the technical requirements placed on components and bonding processes. Structural bonding offers practical advantages over material-locking, force-fitting, and other positive-locking joining processes.
