Abstract

The adhesive-bond strength between adhered agar-galactomannan gel layers was determined, utilizing 90°-peel and tensile-bond tests. Five different independent variables were found to influence the adhesive strength between gel layers: gum concentration, type of galactomannan used, roughness of the layer interface, heat-maintaining capacities of the poured gel layers and the type of agar.
