Solvent bonding

Solvent bonding is a process used to join two or more plastic components by softening their surfaces with a solvent. This technique is commonly employed in the assembly of thermoplastic materials, such as acrylic, polycarbonate, and PVC. Here's how it works: 1. **Surface Preparation**: The surfaces of the components to be bonded are cleaned to remove any contaminants that could affect adhesion. 2. **Application of Solvent**: A solvent is applied to the surfaces of the plastics involved.
