Course Adhesion Science and Technology

Course Director: K. L. Mittal, New York, USA
Description:
Adhesion plays an important role in many technologies and industries, viz., automotive, thin films, optics, coatings, paints and so on. Broadly speaking, the topic can be divided into two categories: film or coating/ substrate combination, and adhesive joint. Films and coating are used for a variety of purposes and irrespective of their intended function, these must adhere adequately to the underlying substrate. So the need for understanding and controlling the factors affecting adhesion is quite patent. Also the durability of the bond (on exposure to process chemicals, moisture, corrosives, etc.) is of grave concern and importance.

This two-day course provides up-to-date information on the factors affecting adhesion and various ways to enhance adhesion in a host of situations.

Who should take this course?
Research, development and manufacturing personnel who have a current or anticipated need for a thorough knowledge of adhesion science and technology.

What are you taught?
After completing this course, you should, among others, be able to:
- Select the right surface cleaning technique
- Utilize the concept of acid-base interactions in improving adhesion
- Analyze the alternatives and select the optimum technique for improving adhesion, and, hopefully, the durability
- Select the appropriate adhesion measurement technique
- Know what are the latest developments and where to look for more information

You may discuss your problems related to surface chemistry and adhesion also with scientists at the IPF and have a look at the Institute's laboratories.

Information on participating / attending:
Fee: EUR 575 (including lecture notes, lunches, coffee)
PLeased register as soon as possible, but at the latest by April 15, 2005.
(The course would have to be cancelled in case of less than 10 registrations by that date.)
Any details concerning registration cf. programme on the web.

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
