Publications

Here is a list of publications from our unit that represents the variety of topics that we have covered in recent decades. This list is not comprehensive. You can use the listed publications to get to other publications through their lists of references, or by using key words in the FPL Search at the upper left hand corner of this Web site, or by searching under the name of current and past research scientists employed in the Adhesives unit in those decades (these would be Gillespie, Conner, Myers, River, Vick, Christiansen, Baumann and Frihart).

In this section we put information that will update or supplement what is in the 1999 edition of the Wood Handbook.

First, we have an updated chart of common wood adhesives, both for consumer and industrial use. Click on this link: adhesive selection chart. Probably the best documents in which to read about the science of wood as a material to be bonded is in Wood as an Adherend, Technology of Wood Bonding, and Gluing of Eastern Hardwoods: A Review.
