Adhesive Properties in Nanomaterials, Composites and Films : Occurrence, Characteristics and Health Considerations

This new book examines the adhesive properties in nanomaterials, composites and films. Topics discussed include the properties and applications of composite materials made of Norland Optical Adhesive and liquid crystal materials; adhesive bonding of hydro-thermally modified wood; the use of adhesive films in transdermal and mucoadhesive dosage forms; the durability of adhesives and matrices for polymer composites used in the restoration and rehabilitation of building structures under natural and accelerated weathering conditions.
