Strength of adhesive bond between layers of laminated material is tested by peel force to the facing with a tensile testing machine. Testing jig has stainless steel rollers which constrain material to move horizontally while maintaining free end of facing at constant 90 deg angle.
Low-profile terminal board is used in dense electronic circuits where mounting and working space is limited. The board has a thin layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive backing which eliminates the need for mounting screws.

Flowmeter determines mix ratio for continuous flow mixing machine used to produce an adhesive from a high viscosity resin and aliphatic amine hardener pumped through separate lines to a rotary blender. The flowmeter uses strain gages in the two flow paths and monitors their outputs with appropriate instrumentation.
Technique measures interlayer adhesion in spacecraft data storage tape to avoid blocking. An unwind force is exerted on the spool, and the displacement before breakaway of the weighted outer layer is used to calculate the peel-off force necessary. This technique also can have terrestrial applications.

Metallic adhesion strength of silver and tungsten junction
Metallic couples ultrahigh vacuum adhesion experiments show contaminant dispersal as major barrier
Embedment of resistive heating elements in a cordwood module used for packaging electronic components, facilitates separation of the adhesive bond between the module, and metal heat sink and the potting material without damaging the components. Electrical power applied to the elements causes breakdown of bonding material.
