Detailed Overview/Outline

The overall objective of this seminar is to offer a sound assessment of the latest developments in adhesive bonding technology, available materials and methods. The course will focus on industrial applications of adhesives, discuss case histories and present approaches to solving existing problems in selection, process, quality and efficiency. The seminar is appropriate for those with limited to moderate knowledge of adhesives who need, or want to learn more. In addition, current adhesive users will become familiar with advances and developments in this area.

Benefits of Attending
Upon completion of this seminar, attendees will:

• Develop an overall understanding of adhesion phenomenon; requirements for a good adhesion; reasons for adhesion loss and how to prevent it
• Become familiar with surface and pretreatment technology
• Learn how to select adhesives, primers and sealants, and become familiar with their specific properties, as well as costs and application methods
• Gain a valuable understanding of joint design, bonding techniques, latest developments and future trends
• Learn how to save costs by implementing more efficient processes and selecting the right materials

Who Should Attend

About SAE

What do cars, aircraft, trucks, off-highway equipment, engines, materials, manufacturing, and fuels have in common? SAE. The Society of Automotive Engineers is your one-stop resource for technical information and expertise used in designing, building, maintaining, and operating self-propelled vehicles for use on land or sea, in air or space.

Who we are & what we do

Nearly 80,000 engineers, business executives, educators, and students from more than 97 countries form our network of members who share information and exchange ideas for advancing the engineering of mobility systems. More than 16,000 volunteer leaders serve on our Board of Directors and our many other boards, councils and committees. Our technical committees write more new aerospace and automotive engineering standards than any other standards-writing organization in the world. We publish thousands of technical papers and books each year, and leading-edge periodicals and Internet and CD-ROM products too. Our Cooperative Research Program helps facilitate projects that benefit the mobility industry as a whole. Numerous meetings and expositions provide worldwide opportunities to network and share information. We also offer a full complement of professional development activities such as seminars, workshops, and continuing education programs. The meetings and activities of local sections provide an opportunity to network with colleagues near you.

Services for the public and the profession

Every day, we demonstrate our commitment to society through local, national, and international public awareness programs that promote vehicle safety and maintenance and energy resource conservation. Through the SAE Foundation, we are also deeply involved in the engineering-related education of children, teachers , college students, and faculty. Industry and faculty awards provide recognition to outstanding contributors in the profession.

Since its founding in 1905, SAE's dedicated people, strong technical base, and vision have helped serve the professional needs of engineers and the transportation needs of humanity. We are clearly poised to continue that role into the 21st century.
