This updated classic includes among its 41 chapters several new ones on PSA applications. An
exhaustive treatise on the entire field of pressure sensitive adhesives. Highly recommended.
From the Preface: ...The third extensively revised edition is the continuation of the effort.
The revision is not limited to updating. We have made changes so that this book is as close to the
handbook as possible. We have added several chapters regarding various PSA applications thus
covering the application field broader than in previous editions. We moved the discussions on pressure
sensitive adhesive properties closer to overviews of the existing art. And of course the material was
updated, because the pressure sensitive adhesive field is a fast growing one and new polymers and
techniques have been developed...
Target Audience: Any reader interested in pressure sensitive adhesives.
