The book series 'Progress in Adhesion and Adhesives' was conceived as an annual publication and the premier volume made its debut in 2015. The series has been well-received as it is unique and provides substantive and curated review chapters on subjects that touch many disciplines.
The current book contains 9 chapters on topics that include multi-component theories in surface thermodynamics and adhesion science; plasma-deposited polymer layers as adhesion promotors; functional interlayers to control interfacial adhesion in reinforced polymer composites; hydrophobic materials, and coatings from natural sources; mechanics of ice adhesion; epoxy adhesives technology; Latest developments and trends; hot-melt adhesives for automobile assembly; lifetime estimation of thermostat adhesives by physical and chemical aging processes; and nondestructive evaluation and condition monitoring of adhesive joints.
Currently, he is teaching and consulting worldwide in the broad areas of adhesion as well
as surface cleaning. He has received numerous awards and honors including the title of
doctor honoris causa from Maria Curie-Sklodowska University, Lublin, Poland. He is the
editor of more than 150 books dealing with adhesion measurement, adhesion of
polymeric coatings, polymer surfaces, adhesive joints, adhesion promoters, thin films,
polyimides, surface modification surface cleaning, and surfactants.
