Techniques that have greatly increased our understanding of adhesion to fluoropolymers are described in Section 3. Cases where good adhesion is achieved without a pretreatment are examined in Section 4. However, as pretreatments are usually needed to get the required level of adhesion, this review is mainly concerned with the wide variety of methods available to pretreat fluoropolymers (Section 5). A general discussion and conclusions follow. The report is supported by an extensive bibliography compiled from the Polyme UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=234847 ER -
