epoxy glue<\/a>! Excuse me, but that is one specialty-engineered epoxy adhesive \u2013 not glue! That\u2019s akin to calling diamonds \u2013 shiny rocks!<\/p>\nYou Go Girl!<\/h3>\n
Of course, I did not share my shock with the customer \u2013 and through the course of testing our high-tech scientific cure to what ailed them, I did see a glimmer of respect for the science. As soon as we left, however, I ranted. \u201cI can\u2019t believe he called you the Epoxy Glue Girl!\u201d Obviously, I was concerned about the word Glue. She thought I was a feminist and commenting on them calling her a Girl. Her response was a complete surprise. \u201cHonest, I\u2019m thrilled with the new title. Before they started using epoxy glue \u2013 I sold them screws for this application. Back then \u2013 they announced, \u201cthe screw lady has arrived.\u201d I can\u2019t help but see that the title was an improvement \u2013 but I asked her to work on it and see if we can\u2019t progress to Epoxy Adhesive Girl?<\/p>\n
We’re Over It.<\/h3>\n
Previously, the term “glue” was used exclusively for natural adhesives (boiled horse hooves, etc\u2026), and “adhesive” was used for synthetic products. Today \u2013 the words are used commonly for both.<\/p>\n
I expect my predisposition to angst over the word glue comes from my children. One had asked what the term \u201cIt\u2019s time to send that old nag to the glue factory\u201d meant. Shortly after providing the answer, I began the evening nagging about doing homework, bathing, and packing backpacks for the next day. Instead of complaining, the three were giggling over an inside joke. They finally shared that they thought if I was going to be an old nag, I ought to go back to work \u2013 \u201cHa Ha Ha \u2013 cuz you work in a glue factory \u2013 get it, Mom?\u201d<\/p>\n

Glue vs Adhesive Let me just say upfront that we professionals in the adhesives industry can get a bit testy when someone refers to our high-tech engineered adhesives as glue.
