A threadlike adhesive sticking apparatus of the present invention is a threadlike adhesive sticking apparatus configured to press a threadlike adhesive wound in a roll shape together with a release liner against an object while feeding out the threadlike adhesive, and includes a pressing unit configured to press the threadlike adhesive debonded from the release liner against the object. A compression elastic modulus of the release liner is 1.5 MPa or less.

Provided herein is a method to reinforce a junction of fiber-composite aircraft components forming an elongate conduit. The method comprises (a) abrading the junction and (b) applying sealant along the junction from a tool moveable through the conduit, the tool exerting force on an interior surface of the conduit opposite the junction.

A thermoplastic composite structure is produced by consolidating and forming a composite preform to a desired shape. The preform comprises plies of a high melt temperature thermoplastic prepreg that are tacked together by a low melt temperature thermoplastic adhering the plies together in fixed registration.

The invention relates to an assembly for adhesively connecting substantially congruent gluing surfaces of a first and second joining partner over their full surface, comprising: the first joining partner (1); the second joining partner (2); an adhesive layer (3) of a polar, flowable adhesive applied to the gluing surface (1a) of the first joining partner (1); means (8) for holding the second joining partner (2) above the adhesive layer (1a) of the first joining partner (1), such that the gluing surface (2a) of the second joining partner (2) faces the adhesive layer (3) on the first joining partner (1) and is disposed so as to be spaced therefrom across an air gap (5), and the spacing defined by the air gap (5) between the first joining partner (1) and the second joining partner (2) is dimensioned in such a way that a capillary volume is formed; means (7) for generating an electric field (10) in order to cause, by means of electric influence, a local charge displacement (11) on and/or in the second joining partner (1), and the charge displacement (11) is suitable for attracting the polar adhesive in such a way that it wets the gluing surface (2a) of the second joining partner (2) first in the area of the local charge displacement (11), wherein the means for generating the electric field comprise an electrode (7), which is disposed on the side of the second joining partner (2) facing away from the gluing surface (2a) and is electrically insulated from said partner (2).

Disclosed herein are exemplary embodiments of linings or liners (e.g., liners with corner reinforcement, etc.), methods of providing a liner or lining for a tank, and methods and apparatus for providing additional protection and/or reinforcement at the corners of a liner or lining. In an exemplary embodiment, a method generally includes positioning and attaching one or more corner attachments at one or more corners of a liner that are formed between the bottom and the one or more sides of the liner. The one or more corner attachments may be configured to provide additional protection and/or reinforcement at the one or more corners of the liner.

The invention relates to the use of an adhesive composition to provide a bonding in a wet environment. The invention also relates to a method for providing a bonding in a wet environment.

The aim of the invention is to propose an edging method that is quick, effective, easy to implement and makes it possible to obtain a lightweight panel. To this end, the aim of the invention is a method for sealingly edging a composite panel comprising; *a step (a) of providing a composite panel of redefined thickness having two planar faces and a side to be edged, and of providing a sealing strip made from a polymer material having a width greater than the thickness of the composite panel, and comprising a first face, referred to as the “inner” face, and a second face, referred to as the “outer” face, in reference to the position of use of same: *a step (b) of applying the strip and an adhesive to the side and to a peripheral portion of the planar faces of the composite panel in such a way that the adhesive is located between the composite panel and the inner face of the strip, which sealingly protects the composite panel against dust, foreign bodies and the absorption of moisture.

Described herein is a packaging system comprising a sleeve having a plurality of sides, an open top, and an open bottom, each of the sides having an inner surface, an inner liner located on the inner surfaces of the sides of the sleeve, the inner liner having an inner surface that defines a cavity, a plurality of building panels located in the cavity, and an outer wrapping surrounding at least a portion of the sleeve and at least a portion of the plurality of building panels.
