There are a lot of misconceptions about plastic joining, so to avoid future confusion, let’s go through the terminology. The word “joining” refers to the process of connecting two materials together. The term “plastic” refers to any synthetic polymer, which can be made into many types of products.
As with any welding process, the strength of the plastic bond is determined by a number of factors. The compatibility of the surfaces is critical to plastic joining, and if the relevant features are incompatible, they must be annealed in order to soften them. In addition, it’s helpful to make sure that you have a steady hand when joining two pieces together.
Finally, because plastics cool rapidly upon removing them from heat, they’ll often fuse together before you’ve had time to hold them in place.
The Process of plastic joining or plastic welding depends upon the thermoplastic properties of each plastic part to weld as well as the welding area and type of joining we want to create.
