Practical Application of Intermolecular Forces
Intermolecular Forces
Applications
An adhesive is a substance that sticks to the surface of an object such that two surfaces become bonded.
The adhesive will “wet” or cover the substrate, when the Intermolecular forces between the glue and the substrate are stronger than the Intermolecular forces between the glue and glue.
For an adhesive to wet a surface, the adhesive should have a lower surface tension, than the solid’s surface energy (or critical surface tension),

2. Intermolecular Forces

• Forces between molecules




Permanent dipoles
Induced dipoles
van der Waals or London Dispersion forces
Hydrogen bonds

3. Applications

• Determines various physical properties of a
molecular solid
– Melting point
– Boiling point
– Vapor pressure
• Adhesive force of glue

4. An adhesive is a substance that sticks to the surface of an object such that two surfaces become bonded.

Once the adhesive is applied to the
substrate, it will begin to cure, or form a
permanent bond
Different Adhesives have different
mechanisms in which the curing takes place

8. So HOW do glues compare?

In the following lab you
will investigate the
differences in the
adhesive ability of some
different types of glues
