Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology ( JAST) provides a forum for the basic and applied aspects of adhesion, chemistry of adhesives, coatings and sealants, and structure-properties relationships in adhesive joints and deals with applications of adhesion principles in all areas of technology.Progress in adhesion science has slowed in recent years and an innovative approach is necessary to push the subject in to new areas. Our current knowledge is sufficiently advanced to justify deeper research in to those issues that currently lie on the fringes of our understanding, focusing on multidisciplinary research and relationships between structures and properties. To enhance our knowledge of adhesion science, JAST will bridge the gap between the chemistry, mechanics, physics, engineering and joining of materials through accurate and current reporting of worldwide developments in adhesives, coatings and sealants chemistries, surface modification of materials, fracture mechanics and adhesion measurement. Our aim is for JAST to become the journal for the publication of innovative research and reviews, presenting articles to a broad readership interested in adhesion and the joining of all kinds of materials. The scope of JAST is to continue to be at the forefront of adhesion research and development. Issues will contain original articles, reviews and short communications dealing with, but not restricted to, the following areas: surface modifications of materials to improve their adhesion; wood adhesion; pressure sensitive adhesives and tapes; hot melt adhesives; structural adhesion; dental adhesion; adhesion aspects in culture heritage; chemistry and functional adhesives, coatings and sealants; wettability and surface energetics; destructive and non-destructive adhesion measurement; contact mechanics; ageing and durability of adhesive joints; metal adhesion; smart and biomimetic adhesion and adhesives; polymer and composites adhesives; paper and cardboard adhesion; biological and medical adhesion; coupling agents; rubber and elastomer adhesion; mortar, asphalt and bitumen adhesion; and industrial applications in all fields driven by structure-adhesion properties relationships. All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees.

《粘合科學與技術雜志》（JAST）提供了一個論壇，討論粘合的基本和應用方面、粘合劑化學、涂層和密封劑以及粘合接頭的結構性能關系，并討論了粘合原理在所有技術領域的應用。近年來，黏著科學的進展有所放緩，有必要采取創新的方法將該學科推向新的領域。我們目前的知識已經足夠先進，足以證明對那些目前處于我們理解邊緣的問題進行更深入的研究是正當的，重點是多學科研究以及結構和屬性之間的關系。為了提高我們的粘附科學知識，JAST將通過準確和最新的報告，在粘合劑、涂層和密封劑化學、材料表面改性、斷裂力學和粘附力測量方面，彌合材料的化學、力學、物理、工程和連接之間的差距。我們的目標是讓Jast成為出版創新研究和評論的雜志，為廣大讀者提供對粘合和各種材料結合感興趣的文章。茉莉花的范圍是繼續走在粘合研究和開發的前沿。問題將包括處理但不限于以下方面的原始文章、評論和簡短通信：材料表面改性以提高其粘合性；木材粘合性；壓敏粘合劑和膠帶；熱熔粘合劑；結構粘合性；牙科粘合性；文化遺產中的粘合性方面；化學嘗試和功能粘合劑、涂層和密封劑；潤濕性和表面能學；破壞性和非破壞性粘附測量；接觸力學；粘合接頭的老化和耐久性；金屬粘合；智能和仿生粘合和粘合劑；聚合物和復合材料粘合劑；紙和紙板粘合；生物和醫學鋁粘合；偶聯劑；橡膠和彈性體粘合；砂漿、瀝青和瀝青粘合；以及由結構粘合性能關系驅動的所有領域的工業應用。所有提交的手稿都要經過編輯的初步評估，如果認為適合進一步考慮，還要經過獨立的匿名專家評審。
