Promotion of welding for plastic.

Dear sir..



Please help me.. We should weld TPU with PET(or LDPE).. Is it possible?? are there any additives for PET(or LDPE)??



Best regards.



You are best of trying to weld a polymer to itself. Failing that, the polymers should be compatible with each other - a very rare situation. And both polymers need to have similar melting temperatures, a further challenge.

Ultrasonic might work. But run from the LDPE. It will be a nightmare.
