Two-Step Heat Fusion Kinetics and Mechanical Performance of Thermoplastic Interfaces

Abstract: Thermoplastic polymers and composites are ubiquitous in the industry for their reshaping and fusing capabilities at elevated temperature. The quality of heat-fused thermoplastic interfaces is of great concern for adhesion, coating, and welding applications, especially those between dissimilar materials. Kinetic evolution of the microstructures defines the mechanical performance of heat-fusion thermoplastic interfaces, which is studied here using polyethylene and polypropylene as an example. Key factors such as… Show more
