Molecular Adhesion and Its Applications The Sticky Universe /
At the beginning of the twentieth century, engineers and technologists would have recognized the importance of adhesion in two main aspects: First, in the display of friction between surfaces Ớ at the time a topic of growing importance to engineers; the second in crafts requiring the joining of m...
