Twenty-five years is a considerable time span in the life of any
scientific discipline; certainly in this twentieth century when
development is so rapid. For the science of adhesion and the
technology of adhesives this is particularly true. For these, the
immediately past quarter century might be compared with the
Renaissance when all the civilised world was alight with the 'new
learning'. Certainly it has been a period of immense advance both
of understanding and of application in this an a of scientific
endeavour. It was in the light of this situation that here at City
University we set about arranging the Twenty-fifth Annual
Conference on Adhesion and Adhesives, of which this volume presents
the proceedings. A total of seventeen papers from seven countries,
covering a span of topics from organic chemistry through physical
chemistry and physics to engineering. Truly this Conference has
'come of age' and is acknowledged as the annual international venue
for the consideration of adhesion in all its diversity. It is our
earnest hope and intention that it shall continue for many more
years. May I express my personal gratitude to all those who make
the event possible; the audiences as well as the speakers, all
those in the University who help in various ways, and the
publishers who make it possible for you, the wider audience, to
have these proceedings.
