2. Deciphering adhesion phenomena for assembly

For successful assembly, you need to understand the existence of interacting forces:

  • This is what we call "cohesive forces";

  • between the substrates and the material making up the assembly set: these are known as "adhesion forces".

2.1 Adhesive strength (for bonding or welding)

This force, also known as surface adhesion, is directly linked to the wettability of substrates, hence the importance of determining it.
