"This work chronicles the proceedings of the International Symposium on Adhesion Measurement of Films and Coatings, held in Boston. The articles in this book were previously published in three special issues of the ""Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology"". Films and coatings are used for a variety of purposes, and their adequate adhesion to the underlying substrates is of importance from a practical consideration. In the latest decades there has been brisk activity in devising new ways to measure adhesion or ameliorating the existing techniques. The contributions to this proceedings volume consist of overview papers, as well as original research results. It provides current information for researchers or technologists interested in measuring adhesion of films and coatings."
