Cohesion (Adhesives and Sealants)

The state in which the particles of a single substance are held together by primary or secondary valence forces.

Cohesion (Agile Modeling)

1. The degree of relatedness within an encapsulated unit (such as a component or a class).

Cohesion (Car Care)

That property of a substance that causes it to resist being pulled apart by mechanical means.

Cohesion (Carpet)

The force that holds fibers together during yarn manufacturing or processing. It is usually a function of lubricant (type and amount) and fiber crimp.The force that holds fibers together during yarn manufacturing or processing. It is usually a function of lubricant (type and amount) and fiber crimp.

Cohesion (Explosives)

Adhesion and cohesion, attractive forces between material bodies. Adhesive forces act between different substances, whereas cohesive forces act within a single substance, holding its atoms, ions, or molecules together. Without these forces, solids and liquids would act as gases. Surface Tension in liquids results from cohesion, and Capillarity results from a combination of adhesion and cohesion. Friction between two solid bodies depends in part on adhesion.

Cohesion (Paint)

A bonding together of a single substance to itself. Internal adhesion.
