3M Simplify Science

3M

On one level, adhesion is simple – everyone has taped or glued things together. But understanding why adhesives stick, choosing the right adhesives and making them work better in your design is a more complicated story, one that involves science, engineering and design. At 3M, we help simplify the science of tapes and adhesives for our customers around the globe while finding the best solutions for their design challenges.
