scope:

This handbook covers the salient properties and intended uses of all current Federal and Military specifications on adhesives.

PURPOSE

Adhesive technologists faced with the task of specifying a suitable adhesive for a given intended use are often hindered by lack of information as to the proper specification without obtaining, classifying, reviewing and comparing a number of specifications. It is the purpose of this handbook to make most of this information readily available; and where feasible to promote the use of adhesives already in the supply system and that are covered by specifications.
