Adhesive Varieties - INI

Adhesives are classified from various perspectives including application, chemical composition, curing mechanism, and physical form. Woodworking adhesives (PVA, polyurethane), rubber-based adhesives (neoprene, nitrile, SBR), epoxy adhesives (two-part, structural), and silicone adhesives (RTV, structural) each have distinct characteristics that make them suitable for specific applications. Proper adhesive selection is crucial across diverse fields from household to industrial use.
