2. Solvent bonding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_bonding

   Solvent bonding differs from adhesive bonding, because the solvent does not become a permanent addition to the joined substrate. [4] Solvent bonding differs from other plastic welding processes in that heating energy is generated by the chemical reaction between the solvent and thermoplastic, and cooling occurs during evaporation of the solvent ...

3. Weld-On - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld-On

   1958: IPS Corporation began endorsing the solvent welding technique, a type of plastic welding, and patented Weld-On solvent cement for use on plastic pipe and fittings. 1978: Weld-On developed and released color-match acrylic adhesive for bonding solid surface countertops. 1992: Weld-On formulated and introduced the first low volatile organic ...

4. Plastic welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_welding

   Hot gas welding, also known as hot air welding, is a plastic welding technique using heat. A specially designed heat gun, called a hot air welder, produces a jet of hot air that softens both the parts to be joined and a plastic filler rod, all of which must be of the same or a very similar plastic. (Welding PVC to acrylic is an exception to ...

5. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

   Polypropylene fittings for solvent welding. A solvent is applied to PVC, CPVC, ABS or other plastic piping to partially dissolve and fuse the adjacent surfaces of piping and fitting. Solvent welding is usually used with a sleeve-type joint to connect pipe and fittings made of the same (or compatible) material.

6. Plastic cement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_cement

   Plastic Cement may refer to: Cement, in the US where it refers to certain formulations of Masonry Cement; Dichloromethane, used to solvent weld some thermoplastics including acrylic; Butanone, model cement is a thick mixture with polystyrene; Tetrahydrofuran, the main solvent in PVC cement

7. Welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding

   Because the solvent can permeate the plastic, the solvent evaporates out through the surface of the plastic, causing the weld to drop out of solution and solidify. A common use for solvent welding is for joining PVC ( polyvinyl chloride ) or ABS ( acrylonitrile butadiene styrene ) pipes during plumbing , or for welding styrene and polystyrene ...
