What plastics can be welded with Infrared Welding?
Infrared welding can be used to weld a variety of thermoplastic materials, including: The suitability of a particular plastic for...
How do mold release agents affect in ultrasonic welding?
Mold release agents are typically used to facilitate the release of plastic parts from the mold during the injection molding...
Can you spin weld ABS?
Yes, ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) can be spin welded. It is a thermoplastic material that can be welded using spin...
How does hygroscopicity affect in ultrasonic welding?
Hygroscopicity is the ability of a material to absorb moisture from the environment. In ultrasonic welding, the presence of moisture...
Can you spin weld polyethylene?
Polyethylene is not typically recommended for spin welding due to its low melting point and low coefficient of friction, which...
Can you spin weld polycarbonate?

What types of plastic polymers are ultrasonically weldable?
Ultrasonic welding is a versatile process that can be used to weld many different types of plastic polymers. The weldability...
What is Semi-crystalline plastic?
Semi-crystalline plastics require a high heat and high energy/amplitude. Semi-crystalline materials attenuate the vibrations more and are more "spongey".
What is hygroscopicity in plastic welding?
Hygroscopicity is the tendency of some plastics to absorb moisture from the air. When a polymer absorbs moisture, it can affect weldability.
What is Amorphous plastic?
A thermoplastic which has a random molecular structure. Examples are ABS, Polycarbonate, and Polystyrene.
