Adhesives that harden by mixing two or more components which then chemically react are called:

Correct answer: C. Multiparts adhesives

  • A. One-part adhesives
  • B. Dying adhesives
  • C. Multiparts adhesives
  • D. Pressure-sensitive adhesives

Explanation

The correct answer is Multiparts adhesives. These adhesives are formulated by mixing two or more components, which then undergo a chemical reaction to harden and form a strong bond. This is distinct from other types of adhesives such as One-part adhesives, which cure without chemical mixing, Dying adhesives, which is not a recognized term in this context, and Pressure-sensitive adhesives, which adhere through applied pressure rather than chemical reaction.
