Choosing a Polyolefin Bonding Adhesive
Polyolefins Thermoplastic polyolefins like polyethylene and polypropylene, and polyolefin elastomers such as EPDM rubber are notoriously difficult to join. Solvent welding does not produce strong bonds as polyolefins normally have excellent resistance to solvents. Polyolefins have very low surface energies so adhesives do not wet-out the surface well without some form of surface treatment. Surface […]
