FEICA and EURADH Announce 2020 Adhesion Innovation Award Winner
BRUSSELS — Elisa Arikan has won the second FEICA/EURADH Adhesion Innovation Award for her paper, “Structural Adhesive Bonding of Polymers — Surface Characteristics and Adhesion Mechanism.” The biannual award, which presented jointly by FEICA (Association of the European Adhesive and Sealant Industry) and EURADH (European Adhesion Societies), aims to stimulate interaction between industry and science.
For 2020, 10 candidates submitted papers about innovative adhesion science, and the EURADH jury examined them to assess several elements, from scientific impact to practical application. Each project needed to demonstrate clear benefits to the circular economy, society and industry.
