Moisture Effects on Adhesive Bond Performance

WEBINAR | June 24, 2026

Moisture is a critical limiting factor in adhesion performance across many industrial applications and remains one of the leading causes of adhesion failure, regardless of polymer chemistry. Its presence can lead to corrosion, delamination, electrical breakdown, and fluid or gas leakage. This webinar explores the fundamental hydrolytic mechanisms by which moisture degrades adhesion strength at both the material…

Softness Megatrend in Hygiene Products and Adhesive Innovations
