Different adhesives are used for different purposes. Below are four separate projects, each with its own performance requirements. Underneath these diagrams are the names of four types of adhesive.

See if you can match up the most suitable adhesive for each project by clicking on the diagram first and then the appropriate adhesive type.

Note that in some cases, you may feel that more than one type of adhesive could be used for a particular job. This might be true - but you should choose the adhesive that is best for the job, bearing in mind that all four types need to be matched to a specific project.

If you are doing this exercise with another learner or in a group, state why you have chosen that adhesive for the selected project. That is, what are the characteristics of the adhesive and the job that make this the best choice?
