2. 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 ...

3. Radio-frequency welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-frequency_welding

   Radio-frequency welding, also known as dielectric welding and high-frequency welding, is a plastic welding process that utilizes high-frequency electric fields to induce heating and melting of thermoplastic base materials. [1] The electric field is applied by a pair of electrodes after the parts being joined are clamped together.

4. Solvent bonding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_bonding

   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. [5] Solvent bonding can be performed using a liquid or gaseous solvent.

5. Hot gas welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_gas_welding

   Hand welding is a technique in which the weld rod is applied to the joint by the welder directly. This is also referenced as free-hand welding or fan welding. [1] The hot gas torch is maneuvered in one hand to heat both the weld rod and joint surfaces in a pendulum manner in quick succession.

6. Welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding

   Welding thermoplastic with heat is very similar to welding glass. The plastic first must be cleaned and then heated through the glass transition, turning the weld-interface into a thick, viscous liquid. Two heated interfaces can then be pressed together, allowing the molecules to mix through intermolecular diffusion, joining them as one.

7. Vibration welding of thermoplastics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration_Welding_of...

   Vibration welding has numerous advantages over other conventional plastic welding processes. Since the heat is created at an interface, the molten polymers are not exposed to open air, preventing oxidation and contamination of the weld during the process. No filler material is required, and when welding components of the same material the joint ...
