Le terme «colle» était à l'origine employé pour un adhésif préparé à partir d'une gélatine dure. Par extension, ce terme est devenu synonyme du terme «adhésif» pour les adhésifs préparés à partir de résines synthétiques. Le terme «adhésif» est préféré comme terme général. 6, record 1, French, - adh%C3%A9sif%20polyvinylique
