Adhere

Adhere is a joining process that joins two or more materials together using an adhesive that sticks between the surfaces. In contrast to other joining methods, such as welding or riveting, bonding does not require any additional components such as screws or bolts and enables the load to be distributed evenly over the entire bonding surface.

Gluing also offers great design flexibility as it can bond different materials and shapes together without affecting their properties. Adhesives can be applied in liquid, paste, film, or sheet form and are often categorized based on their chemical makeup and the way they adhere, such as physical adhesion or chemical bonding.

When gluing, the preparation of the surfaces and the choice of the appropriate adhesive are of crucial importance in order to ensure optimal adhesion and create a permanent, resilient connection.
