THE ADHESION SOCIETY AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN ADHESION SCIENCE SPONSORED BY 3M 2005 AWARDEE:PROFESSOR MANOJ CHAUDHURY

摘要

"For exceptional creativity and ingenuity in research on adhesion and wetting and the development of simple methods to measure the strength of attraction between materials"Intermolecular attractive forces form the basis for adhesion.For many years,these forces were interrogated by contact angle measurements.More recently,methods based in contact mechanics have been used for those investigations.Prof.Chaudhury has played a significant role in both of these areas.
