The book describes the main classes of modern adhesive and sealing materials, their technological, deformation-strength and thermophysical characteristics, the principles of directional regulation of their properties and the selection of composition components. The technological foundations of creating structures, which include adhesive joints, are fully illuminated. Methods of designing typical glued joints of machine parts are considered, specificity of ensuring their tightness is disclosed. The basics of indicators of calculation of reliability of adhesive joints are presented.
