liimühendused
Liimühendused are adhesive substances used to bond materials together. In Estonian terminology they encompass a wide range of products, from simple wood glues and paper adhesives to advanced industrial compounds applied in aerospace, automotive, and electronic manufacturing.
The main categories of liimühendused include water‑based resins, solvent‑based thinners, pressure‑activated hot glues, and thermosetting adhesives
Compositionally, liimühendused are typically formulated from polymer matrices, plasticizers, tackifiers, and sometimes inorganic fillers or catalysts.
Applications span construction, furniture, electronics, footwear, and shipbuilding. In woodworking, standard white glues bond grain surfaces.
Environmental and safety considerations influence liimühenduste selection. Low‑volatile organic compound (VOC) adhesives align with sustainability goals,
