All commercially available welding processes are reviewed and compared to
help the reader select the best suited process for his/her application and
to understand each process' limitations and benefits. The focus on practical
aspects such as weldability, optimizing part design, troubleshooting, and
testing makes this book an indispensable tool for everyone involved in
welding of plastics. At the same time, it also conveys the basic theoretical
principles of plastics welding such as squeeze flow, molecular diffusion,
and heat transfer mechanisms.
