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. Spin welding of polymers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_welding_of_polymers

   Like all other welding methods this process utilizes heat, time, and pressure to create a weld joint. Heat is generated via internal friction generated between the two parts when rotating and subjected to a load normal to the weld joint. This frictional heat causes the plastic to melt and a bond to be created. [1]

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. Polypropylene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypropylene

   PP can be melted using a speed tip welding technique. With speed welding, the plastic welder, similar to a soldering iron in appearance and wattage, is fitted with a feed tube for the plastic weld rod. The speed tip heats the rod and the substrate, while at the same time it presses the molten weld rod into position.

6. Heat fusion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_fusion

   Butt welding is usually performed using one of several methods. The first, and most common, is butt welding or butt fusion, which is a type of hot plate welding. This technique involves heating two planed surfaces of thermoplastic material (typically polyethylene) against a heated surface. After a specified amount of time, the heating plate is ...

7. Extrusion welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrusion_Welding

   Extrusion welding is an attractive process for applications that take advantage of its ability to weld thick sections quickly. For some applications, especially where there are large geometry parts where more traditional plastic welding methods (such as hot plate welding) is not possible, extrusion welding is the only feasible and cost effect option.
