Synthetic resin adhesive in sailplane construction

Abstract

The majority of gliders are made of wood and satisfactory gluing is fundamental to their safety. Casein glues are still used by some constructors but they are not fully resistant to moisture and they are suceptible to attack by microorganisms and insects.....The Redux process is most valuable for the attachment of wood veneer to a metal surface so that wooden members can be subsequently bonded on using a cold-setting adhesive.
