Latex bonding chemistry and processes
About this book
Latex bonding involves the creation of a strong adhesive bond between latex particles, which are typically made of polymers. This book provides a holistic understanding of the latex material covering both theoretical foundations and practical applications. It starts with an introduction to latex materials and provides an overview of their composition, properties, and diverse applications across different industries. Then, the fundamentals of latex chemistry, elucidating the chemical structure and behavior of latex particles and the physics and mechanics underlying latex bonding are discussed. The preparation and characterization of latex material as well as the growing importance of environmentally friendly practices in latex production and disposal issues are well explained. In addition, the influence of additives on latex bonding (such as the role of surfactants, coagulants, and crosslinking agents) as well as the wide range of their industrial applications (such as paints, adhesives, coatings, textiles, and healthcare products) are discussed. Finally, future trends in latex bonding are presented. This book can serve as an invaluable resource for students, researchers and engineers who are involved in the field of latex bonding.
