Adhesive and Bonding Health and Safety

1. One important factor to be consider in keeping adhesive materials in order not to contact with other things or
chemicals or keep not in expose to heat or even in air.
a. Skin protection
b. Storage box
c. Fire hazard
d. Toxic fumes
2. Why do we need to keep most adhesive distance from the fire?
a. Because they are flammable and has high temperature
b. Because they are volatile and spark easily
c. Because they are low burning temperature
3. The generic name for a family of strong fast-acting adhesives with industrial, medical and household uses.
a. Cyanoacrylate
b. Supercyanate
c. Cyanoacitate
d. Superglue
4. Why are adhesives at some point of the bonding process?
a. To allow molecular intimacy for Van Der Waals attraction forces to take hold.
b. To wet the parts, it is trying to bond together.
c. To make the bond a little bit stronger.
d. To allow molecules to penetrate the spores for stronger metallic bond.
5. Adhesive materials must be compatible in the sense that the surface tension must be similar or lower than
that of the adherend surfaces.
a. True
b. False
c. Trules
d. Trolls
6. How can we test surface cleanliness of materials to be bonded?
a. dropping of de-ionized water
b. using magnifying glass
c. dropping of ionized water
d. using microscope
7. Also referred to as gluing or glue bonding describes a wafer bonding technique with applying an
intermediate layer to connect substrates of different materials.
a. Adhesive bonding
b. Compressive bonding
c. Epoxy bonding
d. Solvent bonding
8. Where is galling especially common?
a. Between the surfaces with inadequate lubrication.
b. Between surfaces with high tension.
c. Between rubbing surfaces.
d. Between rotating surfaces.
9. What are the most important process parameters for achieving a high bonding strength?
 a. Adhesive materials
b. Coating techniques
c. Bonding Temperature
d. Processing Time
e. Chamber Pressure
f. Tool Pressure

10. What is the purpose of an activator when using an epoxy resin?

a. The resin and hardener are pre-mixed but curing does not occur because the hardener is inactive
at room temperature. It only becomes reactive as the temperature is raised, usually above 100°C,
forming a hard thermoset polymer which will not re-melt on further heating.
11. Advantages of adhesive bonding.

a. A variety of materials can be bonded. These may be similar or dissimilar; thick or thin;
metallic or non-metallic, easy to distinguish
b. Thin, delicate and heat-sensitive parts, which heat methods of joining would distort or
destroy, can be bonded immediately.
c. When used it can replace mechanical methods of joining.

12. Disadvantages of adhesive bonding.

a. Adhesive is not as strong as metal.

b. Maximum bonding strength is not usually produced instantly.
c. Assembled joint may need to be supported for at least part of the time to allow bond
strength to build up.
d. Bonded structures are mostly difficult to dismantle for repair or replacement.
e. In most cases, temperature limitations in service are below those of other joining methods.

Joining Plastics

1. Presumes the used of additional parts fasteners such as polymeric of metallic screws, bolts,
washers, rivets, or it relies on its integrated design elements such as snap-fit or press-fit joints.
a. Mechanical Fastening
b. Solvent bonding
c. Adhesive Bonding
d. Fusion Bonding
2. Advantage of mechanical fastening
a. The advantages of this approach are that no surface treatment is required disassembly of
the components for inspection and repair is straight forward.
3. Limitations of mechanical fastening
a. increase weight,
b. the presence of large stress concentrations around the fastener’s holes,
c. and subsequent in-service corrosion problems
4. Fastening of materials which placed between the parts to be bonded adherends where serve is as
the materials that joint the parts and transmit the loads through the joints.
a. adhesive and solvent bonding
 b. Mechanical Fastening
c. Welding or fusion bonding
d.
5. This joining technique is primarily applied to glassy amorphous thermoplastics, such as
polycarbonates (PC), acrylic (AK) and polysterene (PS) resins.
a. adhesive and solvent bonding
b. Mechanical Fastening
c. Welding or fusion bonding
6. Heat is applied to melt the polymeric materials at contracting surfaces enabling through
intermolecular diffusion and polymeric chains entanglement processes to form a joint.
a. adhesive and solvent bonding
b. Mechanical Fastening
c. Welding or fusion bonding
7. Why do we need to use the correct adhesive for the plastic to be joined?
a. As anyone who has tried it knows, gluing plastics can be tricky. Many plastics including
Teflon, nylon, polypropylene, TPU, and PVC are notoriously hard to glue together. The
plastics that are the most difficult to glue together are characterized by low surface
energies, low porosity, and non-polar or non-functional surfaces. They feature no
functional site or surface roughness onto which an adhesive can secure itself. In other
words, they are extremely smooth and slippery, so there’s nothing for the glue to grab.
8. Used to close small opening that are difficult to shut with other materials, such as concrete, drywall,
etc.
a. Sealant
b. Gasket
c. Packing
d. Adhesive
9. A mechanical seal which fills the space between two or more mating surfaces, generally to prevent
leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression.
a. Gasket
b. Sealant
c. Packing
d. Adhesive
10. A mechanical engineering or any substance or materials used to make watertight or gastight joints,
especially in a stuffing box.
a. Gasket
b. Sealant
c. Packing
d. Adhesive
11. Desirable properties of sealants
a. insolubility, corrosion resistance, and adhesion.
12. Gaskets applications.
a. high pressure steam systems
b. high pressure pipe joints like, fuel pipes, seawater pipes, freshwater pipes, compressed air
pipes, hydraulic oil pipe, etc.
