No, but if it has adhesion properties then it is an adhesive. That doesn't mean it is necessarily going to be used to glue parts together, it can mean simply that it has adhesion.

I mean, a gallon pail of silicone isn't exactly cheap either. It goes down some in quantity, but there is very good reason why companies don't like to pot things if they don't have to.

I had a look in a dictionary, because this is not my native language:
"adhesive" (noun)
a sticky substance that is used for joining things together, usually permanently.
