Factors in the adhesion strength of polymers toward a solid substrate

The true adhesion is looked upon as the sum of the experimentally determined strength of the glued area, internal stresses, and unaccountable technological losses (unrealized contacts). It has been established that the internal stresses do not depend on the value of the adhesion strength.Translated from Mekhanika Polimerov, No. 2, pp. 356–359, March–April, 1976.
