| Summary |
Long seen as an old-fashioned material with narrowing modern applications, wood has seen increased popularity as a material in building and manufacturing in recent years. This has been driven by the need for sustainable resources and environmentally friendly materials. As a result of increased emphasis on wood, however, there is a corresponding need to understand the wood adhesives, the crucial materials in wood-based manufacture and craftsmanship. Adhesives and Finishes for Wood readers will find: Coverage ranging from the fundamentals of wood adhesive polymer chemistry to the properties of specific wood structures and resins; A presentation suitable for both academic students and wood manufacture professionals |
