BACKGROUND ADHESION MECHANISM Adhesion principles between thermoplastic elastomer and the rigid substrate are governed by three very important molecular factors which are the foundation of science behind good adhesive behavior. 1. In some instances, good bonding exists even in the mechanism of adhesive failure. The adhesion is categorized based on adhesive failure (A)- if no TPE residue is left on the substrate or cohesive failure (C)- if the failure is in TPE.

Cohesive (C) or adhesive (A). The adhesion is categorized based on adhesive failure (A)- if no TPE residue is left on the substrate or cohesive failure (C)- if the failure is in TPE. Based on adhesion strength required by the consumer we have categorized an adhesion value higher than 12 pli to be acceptable for adhesion.
